Queen's Manor covers an area of 280mu and is located in Vale da Grama, an ancient volcanic valley in Brazil.

In 2011, the manor won the championship in the COE competition in Brazil. Fazenda Rainha is owned by the prestigious and respectable coffee family Carvalho Dias family. Since the first Brazilian COE Competition in 1999, Carvalho Dias's four major estates have won awards every year, winning more than 12 times in the past seven years, and even arranged for the champion, 9th, 11th and so on in 2004, many large and small estates in Brazil.

After years of hoping to be shortlisted and difficult to win, the family's manor has taken away many awards in successive years. Even the Queen Manor Fazenda Rainfa bought by Osher enjoys a brilliant record: 2000 runner-up, 2001 second runner-up, 2005 29th place, and so far, Queen's Manor has won three awards.

The Carvalho Dias family is also a founding member of the Brazilian Fine Coffee Association. The insistence on coffee quality and the maintenance of the environment are obvious to all. In the family farm, the use of natural waterfalls to develop pollution-free hydropower, self-sufficient electricity demand (another award-winning member of the family is named Falls Manor after this waterfall) Construction of churches, classrooms, nurseries, medical stations, maintenance of primitive forests of native animals and plants, and continuous afforestation. In the case of the Queen's Manor, the environmental protection is quite thorough. Because of the high terrain and non-plain terrain, it is impossible to use machines to harvest, and the fruits can be harvested completely by hand. And plant low-yield and high-quality bourbon species, as the essence of high-quality Brazilian coffee on behalf of the manor!

The peeling and Meat handling system of Queen's Manor (Coffee processing system):

The ripe cherry fruit is picked on the cloth bag by hand to avoid touching the ground. The coffee fruit harvested on the same day must be sent to the treatment plant to which the manor belongs for half-sun treatment (Pulped Natural). The coffee fruit is picked by hand and surrounded by cloth. This is to avoid the earthy taste and any improper fermentation flavor. When the harvested coffee fruit arrives at the processing site, wash the coffee fruit immediately: wash the coffee fruit clean. The unqualified or dried fruits (b ó ia beans) were screened out according to the size partition of the bean body, and the qualified beans were screened, and the peeling action continued (using the pulper machine).

There are 200 mu of Huangbo coffee trees planted in the manor, and the undulating mountains make it impossible for large-scale mechanical harvesting, so all the coffee here needs to be harvested by hand.

The manor uses half-sun treatment, semi-washing through the drying rack and baking machine, mechanical screening is supplemented by manual screening, a large number of work requires farm employees to live in the farm all year round. All employees and their families can enjoy housing, health care and education benefits here.

The estate is a member of a local Grama Valley medium-sized farm organization that mainly exports boutique coffee from bourbon varieties. The organization's office is located in nearby Pocos de Caldas, and they also have a national cup testing laboratory with a large warehouse. The group also works with local universities and other institutions to conduct research, including Lavras University, where the famous Dr. FlavioBorem is from its agricultural research center.
