Brazil has also proved to be able to produce gourmet coffee and small quantities of coffee, and the local boutique coffee can not only be provided by small-scale coffee farmers. The main coffee producing areas in Brazil are Sulde Minas South Minas, Matas de Minas Minas South East Mountain Forest, Cerrado Hirado, Chapadas de Minas Mausoleum in the north-central part of Minas Brazil, Mogiana, Paran á Parana and Bahia Bachia.

There are both traditional varieties and varieties of Brazilian Minas, such as Bourbon, Mondo Novo Mondonovo, Icat ú Ikatu, Kaduai, Iapar, cultivatedCaitai Coffee, which was first introduced to Brazil in the early 18th century. In 1727, the Brazilian government sent a personable army officer to secretly bring coffee seeds from French Gaiana to Brazil on the ground of mediating border disputes. At that time, the governor's wife of French Gaiana was said to be fascinated by this officer. So he secretly brought coffee tree seeds to him at the farewell dinner. At present, 2 million hectares of land in Brazil is used to grow coffee, with a maximum of more than 70% being Arabica. These beans will eventually be sent to large bakers in various countries, also known as Santos (in the name of the port of export santos, not the producing area).

After 2000, because of the coffee competition, the quality of coffee beans produced in the high-altitude regions of the south was appreciated, mainly by the farms around the high platform of Minas, Brazil, and the coffee quality was also the largest among Brazilian beans, such as Sirado in the west of Minas and Matas in the east, Bashiya in the north or small farms in the south, Minas almost became synonymous with Brazilian boutique coffee. In recent years, the coffee competition is accurate to be separated by treatment (water treatment / half-washing / half-sun / sun-drying), which has developed a variety of flavors, taste and finish, which is quite different from traditional Brazilian coffee.

In particular, Brazil's Minas performs best in half-sun and sun exposure, increasing the aroma of clean and low-acid fruits, reducing the rich chocolate flavor of farm coffee without the use of a machine, manual hand picking of fully ripe coffee beans with citrus and fruit tea aromas, wet aromas of black tea, elegant aromas of jasmine and herbal tea, and mellow oolong tea on the finish. It tastes very fresh and gentle, which is a rare surprise among Brazilian beans.
