Ricardo and Leonardo Tavares - Brazil Matilde Farm

Located in the region of Chapada de Minas, Matilde farm contains 550 hectares of coffee planted at an average altitude of 1,060 MASL.

This region is mountainous and with an incredible landscape that mixes Cerrado and Rain Forest vegetation, which gives it a very lush and diverse biodiversity. With high relative humidity, a climate quite like Central America, and clay soil, the farm’s climate is mixture of dry with consistent rain periods.

The coffee is planted in both flat and slightly lumpy lands which have streams and rivers through the terrain.
