Calherro 72h Yeast Fermentation

Mio is a distinguished coffee farm located in Monte Santo de Minas, Brazil. As both a producer and exporter, Mio is dedicated to harvesting coffee with exceptional care, ensuring that every bean meets the highest standards of quality.

Farm Overview

Spanning 1,589 hectares, Mio's farm is a blend of innovation and tradition. One-third of the land houses coffee processing and milling facilities, pasture areas, and eucalyptus plantations, which support a thriving bee population. The remaining land is equally divided between coffee trees and a native forest reserve, reflecting Mio's commitment to environmental sustainability. The farm, enriched with ample spring water, prioritizes maintaining and improving water quality.

Unique Terroir

Situated between the Southern Minas Gerais and High Mogiana regions, Mio benefits from two distinct terrains. This unique location imparts a citric acidity and a full-bodied sweetness to the coffee, creating a well-balanced and flavorful cup.

Commitment to Sustainability

Mio dedicates equal land to coffee cultivation and forest preservation, maintaining the natural characteristics of the area. This balance ensures that the local ecosystem thrives alongside coffee production.

Traceability and Technology

Mio guarantees 100% traceability for every crop, every year. Using satellite imagery and advanced tracking technologies, each stage of the coffee's journey is meticulously recorded - from cherry harvesting to processing. This technological approach not only enhances farmworkers' quality of life but also ensures abundant harvests and the highest processing standards.

State-of-the-Art Processing Facilities

Mio's processing facilities are equipped with cutting-edge technology, including:

• A wet-mill
• Concrete patios and raised beds for drying
• Ambient-air drying rotating machines
• Wood silos and cross-beater hullers
• Density separators

Further sorting by size and color is achieved using an oscillating screen and an optical-electronic system, ensuring only the finest beans make it to the final product.
