Fazenda Vista Alegre sits high in the mountains of Piatã, Bahia, where Renato Rodrigues and his wife Tainã grow coffee with deep respect for the land. On their small organic farm, they rely on traditional, low-intervention methods, nurturing each stage of production with precision and care.
This natural processed peaberry reflects the cool climate and slow ripening unique to the region, developing rich sugars and striking sweetness in the cup. Renato’s patient approach yields a coffee that feels both pure and expressive, an honest reflection of Piatã’s rare environment and his family’s craft.
 
                      
                      
                      Whole beans or pre-ground?
Coffee deteriorates much faster once it is ground, making whole beans the ideal way to purchase coffee. If you don't have a grinder though, all good!
