Sao Judas Brazil Filter
Fazenda São Judas Tadeu lies outside the small town of Piatã, in Bahia’s Chapada Diamantina region. Today, the region is famous for its specialty coffee. The farm is owned by Antônio Rigno and his wife Terezinha, who have been farming coffee in the region for more than 40 years. Many farmers in the area look to him for advice and mentorship, and he graciously lets them process their coffee at the wet mill located at São Judas Tadeu. This coffee was processed using the pulped natural process.
After pulping, the beans were sun-dried on greenhouse patios with their mucilage still attached—spread in layers of about four centimetres and raked several times a day.
