Rio Brilhante

Meet Aramosa —the low-caffeine overachiever. Grown at 1000–1150 meters on the Rio Brilhante farm in Minas Gerais, this coffee comes from the Urban family, a multi-generation operation that knows what it’s doing. They farm big (1,755 hectares), but smart—dedicating huge portions of land to preservation and supporting the local economy with both full-time and seasonal jobs. Aramosa is a rare cross of Arabica and Racemosa , bred for serious drought resistance and naturally low caffeine (just 0.7–0.8%). Chill coffee, high standards. Your average cup sits at around 1.4% so you're looking about half the caffeine content - so double the cups? Right? Cherries are hand-picked, hand-sorted , then fermented for 36 hours before spending 15 slow days drying on patios . The payoff? A clean, expressive cup with floral aromatics and bright citrus notes . Proof that less caffeine doesn’t mean less character.
