Well-balanced, creamy, and sweet.
After years of experience in the industry, Enivaldo Marinho Pereira purchased his first farm, Fazenda Cruzeiro, in 1998. What began as a small project focused on coffee seeds and plants grew rapidly: two years later, they were already growing their own coffee trees. This marked the birth of the Pereira Specialty Coffee Group, which today spans 280 hectares.
The Pereira family has always been guided by science, curiosity, and continuous improvement. Enivaldo and Denise passed on this approach to coffee to their children, Eduardo and Roberta, who incorporated new post-harvest processing techniques and took the definitive leap into specialty coffee. Their three farms cover the entire supply chain: from seed production to the final care of the beans.
This rigorous yet caring approach has earned regional and national recognition. Its “secret” is simple: well-nourished plants, careful handling, and extremely meticulous post-harvest work.
Sustainability is also an essential part of their daily lives. The family invests in technology to improve the quality of their coffee while protecting the environment. Forty percent of their land remains as native forest within the Cerrado biome.
The region where they work, the Triângulo Mineiro in western Minas Gerais, is one of Brazil’s major coffee-growing areas. Its elevation, between 1,000 and 1,200 meters, is ideal for growing high-quality Arabica coffee. Although the climate is favorable, growers supplement it with irrigation systems that protect the plants during dry periods and ensure stable harvests.
The result is a coffee that embodies the perfect blend of environment, technique, and innovation. It’s a testament to why the Triângulo Mineiro has established itself as one of Brazil’s leading regions for specialty coffee.
