Story

Rio Pardo Region

The Rio Pardo coffee region, situated between Mogiana and South Minas, is celebrated for producing high-quality coffee beans. Blessed with the perfect combination of altitude, climate, and soil conditions, this region creates an optimal environment for coffee cultivation. The resulting beans boast a balanced acidity, medium body, and distinctive notes of chocolate, nutty undertones, and a hint of stone fruit. Local farmers adhere to traditional cultivation methods, emphasising sustainability to preserve the rich biodiversity of the area.

Processing

The Monteiro Lobato blend is a testament to the commitment to flavour consistency and meticulous craftsmanship. Crafted by Ocafi from neighbouring farms surrounding Ocafi’s Farm Fazenda Pinheiro, each lot is carefully selected based on various factors, including distinct flavour profiles, bean density, and colour matching for uniformity. The beans undergo a natural processing method, spending around 12 days on the patio to optimise their unique characteristics. Following this, they spend 10 hours in mechanical dryers to ensure precise moisture control. The final touch involves 15 days in wooden Tulhas (silos), allowing the beans to stabilise and develop their rich, nuanced flavours.

Community Impact

By selecting Monteiro Lobato, we play a vital role in supporting the Fazedores de Café program project in São Paulo. This initiative provides high-quality barista training to students from socially and economically vulnerable backgrounds, fostering empowerment and skill development within the local community. The choice of Monteiro Lobato contributes to the positive transformation of lives and reinforces the commitment to social responsibility.

For every bag of Monteiro Lobato sold, a tree is planted on the Pinheiro farm, contributing to naturalisation efforts and sustainable practices. This initiative aligns with Ocafi’s dedication to maintaining the ecological balance of the Rio Pardo region, ensuring that the land remains vibrant and fertile for future generations.

In each cup of Monteiro Lobato, you'll not only discover a symphony of flavors but also a harmony of environmental sustainability and community enrichment. Embrace the unique journey of this coffee, from the carefully selected beans to the positive impact it leaves on the environment and society.
