Coffee Description
A classic Brazilian offering, this coffee celebrates the tried-and-true pairing of honeyed graham cracker and dark chocolate. But instead of marshmallow, in the cup, it throws in a surprising grape sweetness and flavor that keeps you sipping to the last drop.

About Fazenda Primavera of Brazil
Fazenda Primavera is located in the Minas Gerais region, where the biomes of the Atlantic forest and the Cerrado intersect. Here the elevation and climate are ideal growing conditions for coffee. Producer Ricardo Tavares exhibits his expertise with this excellent example of the region's finest coffees.
This particular lot is honey processed, which involves separating the cherry from the pulp without the use of water, and leaving as much mucilage as possible on the bean to dry. The mucilage becomes sticky with a golden amber color, resembling honey as it is slowly absorbed into the bean. This process increases the sweetness and complexity of the coffee.

Caffè Umbria
Seattle-based Caffè Umbria may have opened its doors in 2002, but it is built on 3 generations of the Bizzarri family’s roasting tradition which began in Perugia, Italy in the 1940s. 40 years later, Emanuele Bizzarri’s father emigrated to the U.S. and started a coffee company, Torrefazzione Italia. That’s where Emanuele, Pasquale Madeddu, and Jesse Sweeney met and worked together for years. Ultimately the 3 friends partnered together to create their own roasting company, Caffè Umbria. What began as a small operation now produces over 1 million pounds annually and extends to 9 retail cafés from Seattle and Portland to Chicago and Miami. In fact, Caffè Umbria was chosen by Architectural Digest as Illinois' most beautiful coffee shop, Jan. 2019.
Caffè Umbria excels in personal service and delicious coffee blends that represent the Bizzarri family traditions of unique and balanced coffees.They also offer an exciting array of single origin coffees and craft custom coffee programs for the food service industry across the nation. Passionate about building relationships with the cities and neighborhoods in which they work, creating warm welcoming spaces with a European flair, all their locations are known for well-prepared drinks and outstanding service in a beautiful environment. Fun fact: As a nod to their heritage, Caffè Umbria’s logo features the Arco Etrusco, one of the gateways into the heart of old Perugia, Italy in the beautiful Umbria region.
