ABOUT THE COFFEE:
Beneficio Pedra Banca is found in the Pedra Branca mountains in Pedralva, Carmo de Minas. Beneficio means mill and this mill was built by the guys at CarmoCoffees to better service the 2000 small holder coffee farmers that live in this region.
The rich soil and high elevation make the coffees from this region perfect for specialty grade coffee although at times this was not always achieved due to poor infrastructure and lack of knowledge amongst the farmers.
CarmoCoffees built the mill in 2012 to help fulfill the needs of the local farms to help them acheive the maximum potential from their crops via greater access to machinery and processing knowledge at the mill.
