The mountainous topography and favourable climate offer ideal conditions for the cultivation of high-quality coffee. With altitudes ranging from 800 to 1,300 meters above sea level and a unique combination of fertile soils and well-distributed rainfall, this region has become a paradise for coffee growers seeking to produce exceptional beans. The influence of terroir, the set of environmental factors affecting coffee cultivation, is evident in the coffees produced in this region. Temperature fluctuations between day and night provide a slow and gradual ripening of the fruits, resulting in dense cherries rich in complex flavours. Additionally, the combination of varied soils, from clayey to sandy, gives unique characteristics to each coffee lot. The impact of specialty coffee production in the Campo das Vertentes region transcends the economic aspect, also influencing the cultural and social identity of the area. Many families depend on coffee farming for their livelihoods, and coffee cultivation has become an integral part of the local lifestyle.
