A Balanced and Sophisticated Journey from Imesta Coffee
Brazil... The heart of coffee, the homeland of sun-ripened beans.
Coffees grown at high altitudes in mineral-rich soils are synonymous with warmth, balance, and sweetness. And here's one of the most distinctive examples of this region: Rio Minas, Brazil .
As Imesta Coffee, we offer this bean not just as a product, but as a refined experience that leaves a mark on the palate.

Light hazelnut notes spread across the palate at the first sip, followed by a caramel-like sweetness and a finish balanced by cocoa tones...

Imesta Comment: Craftsman Balance
Brazil Rio Minas may be perceived as a “typical” Brazilian coffee by many brands.
But we reinterpreted this bean with a special roasting profile:
By advancing the roasting curve at a slower rate, we highlighted the bean's natural sugars, achieving a refined balance of body and aroma.
This is for those who want to not only drink coffee but also understand, feel and redefine it.
