Producer info and cup notes: 

Marcelo Assis and Flavio Silva founded Bioma Cafe in 2010, a collaborative project that utilized Marcelo's education in technical agriculture, and Flavio's background in business management. The entirety of their land in Campos Altos, Minas Gerais is devoted solely to specialty production, with 226 hectares meticulously divided into 4 separate plots, each with their own micro-climate and soil care plans. Through the use of shade trees, organic fertilizer, and custom nutrition plans for each plot, Bioma Cafe showcases a unique approach to specialty in Brazil, one dedicated to the careful management and stewardship of its land, and one devoted to its people, employing 22 full time workers and an additional 25 seasonal pickers.

Bioma's motto is "Coffee for a better future" and the future seems very bright with this harvest, showing some of the clearest fruit flavors I've tasted in a Brazilian coffee, with syrupy blackberry and blackcurrant notes upfront, carrying over to a lovely toffee and raw honey sweetness, with a clean and lasting finish.
