Description
Fazenda da Lagoa is located in the famous coffee growing region of Sul de Minas, in Minas Gerais, only a few hundred kilometers away from Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, at an altitude of around 1100 meters and ideal climatic profile for coffee production.
The origins of Fazenda da Lagoa date back to 1764, when the Portuguese crown donated the property to the so-called Jangada, the earliest ancestor of its agricultural director J. Paiva. It is one of the oldest coffee farms in the region of the “Campo das Vertentes” and up to today has nearly maintained the same size. The knowledge of how to produce one of Brazil’s most outstanding coffees has been passed down from generation to generation.
