Nestled in the heart of Campos Altos, in the enchanting region of West Minas Gerais, lies a family-owned farm, Canta Galo. While not yet officially certified like the renowned Cerrado, coffee thrives amidst unique terroir and microclimates. Situated at the edge of the Atlantic Forest, where it meets the Cerrado Mineiro, and near the famed Serra da Canastra (known for its incredible cheese), we call this place “the gateway to the Cerrado.”
At an average altitude of 1200m, coffee cherries undergo a slow and careful maturation process, shielded from the winds by a towering stone wall. Here, the cherries bask in the sun’s direct rays only until 3:30 pm during harvest, which extends the drying period and intensifies their flavors.
