Fazenda Recreio - Brazil
Café PistaAbout This Coffee
This coffee is from Fazenda Recreio, located in the Mogiana region in São Sebastião da Grama, São Paulo, Brazil. The farm sits at altitudes between 1,000 and 1,350 meters. The cherries are washed, sorted, and depulped on the same day as picking, then dried on patios until reaching 20% humidity before being transferred to a dryer to reach 11% humidity. The coffee then rests for at least 30 days in resting boxes to homogenize the drying. Founded in 1890, the farm is currently run by Diogo Dias Teixeira de Macedo, the fifth generation of the family, and has earned international recognition through numerous Cup of Excellence awards, including first place in 2004.

Café Pista
What began in 2014 as Le Pista Cafe Mobile, a bicycle powered coffee cart created by Maxime Richard, has grown into a Montreal roastery with three brick and mortar locations. The first permanent cafe opened on Beaubien Street in 2016, and roasting now takes place on a Loring S15 Falcon at the Rue Masson location. Cafe Pista maintains a farm to table mentality, building direct relationships with producers to ensure quality and traceability from origin to cup. In a uniquely Montreal twist, select locations transform into Vin Public wine bars on Thursday and Friday evenings, blending coffee culture with the city's vibrant social scene.
