About the Farm: Fazenda do Salto is located in Carmo da Cachoeira, Sul de Minas, Brazil, and it’s managed by Otávio Reis, the fifth-generation of a 100-year family legacy. Spanning 800 hectares at 1,150 meters above sea level, the farm grow a diverse array of varieties, including Yellow Catucai, Catuai, Bourbon, Robi, Icatu, Mundo Novo, Arara, and Topazio. Otavio employs production techniques tailored to specific plots, terroir, and variety. With picturesque rolling meadows of coffee, it embodies the classic Brazilian coffee farm.

They produce Naturals and Pulped Naturals (Honey), with their Naturals drying on huge patios for 15–20 days before finishing in rotary dryers, while pulped naturals enjoy shorter patio time and precise machine drying. The result? Coffees celebrated for their clarity, balance, and competition-winning complexity.

As a proud member of the Brazil Specialty Coffee Association, their coffees earn recognition in competitions and the Cup of Excellence. Otávio Reis and the younger generation drive innovation through experimentation, enhancing their specialty coffee offerings.

With a dedicated workforce of around 40 permanent employees, Fazenda do Salto prioritizes year-round administration and coffee plant care, providing housing, education, and schooling opportunities for their lifelong workers and families.
