Old bourbon coffee is grown on some estates in the Serrado district of Minas Greais state in southeastern Brazil. Old varieties of bourbon coffee grown on these estates, such as Capin Branco and Vista Allegre, are also sold on the market. Although they come from the same area, these coffees have their own characteristics. Capingblanco coffee is smoother than Vesta Allegre coffee, while Vesta Allegre coffee is strong and black, both of which have lower acidity. However, like all Brazilian coffee, they are most suitable for drinking when they are fresh and tender, because the older they are, the more acidic they are. These coffee growers have organized themselves into the Brazilian Special Coffee Association (the Speciality Coffee Association of Brazil). Brazil is vividly likened to the "giant" and "monarch" of the coffee world. There are about 3.97 billion coffee trees there, and small farmers now grow 75% of Brazil's total coffee production. The number of coffee producers in Brazil is twice or even three times that of Colombia, the second largest coffee producer in the world.

Unlike in the past, Brazil's economy is now less dependent on coffee, which accounts for only 8% to 10% of GDP. Before World War II, Brazil accounted for 50% or more of the world's coffee production, and now it is close to 30%. But the country's impact on the world coffee, especially on coffee prices, is very important. for example, two frost disasters in 1994 caused a sharp rise in global coffee prices.

Since 1999, South Minas is the most successful manor in Brazil's "extraordinary cup" national treasure bean bidding activity, which is the backbone of Brazilian boutique coffee. As for the north-central mausoleum of Minas (Chapada de Minas) is not a boutique producing area, mostly for general commercial beans. To sum up, South Minas, the central and western Mesa of Minas (i.e. Serrado) and the higher forest areas in the southeast can all be called boutique producing areas of Minas province.

In addition, Mogiana in the northeast of Sao Paulo Province (north to South Minas) is also dominated by shaded bourbon, which is ranked as the three major boutique producing areas in Brazil along with Serrado and South Minas. Well-known estates in South Minas include Hope Manor and Montague. The famous "Datra Manor" and "Highland Manor" groups also have several large estates in Serrado and Mojiana. The winning estates of the four cup tests have become the treasures of the town shops of South Minas, Serrado and Mojiana.
