Hello Mac,
Brazilian coffee is popular for sure. Even my Mum who does not drink coffee mentioned that to me yesterday when I spoke to her. She reminded me of a little song which goes, "there's a whole lot of coffee in Brazil..."😅
Interesting that Brazilian Santos is named after the port.
Great info about the cupping, and my wish is to visit coffee farms to learn more about the processes.
I missed out on trips to the Blue Mountain Coffee Plantation in Jamaica but hopefully I'll get to one day.
Dries fruit and smoky taste would be fine for me. Just not an earthy after taste.
Thanks for sharing;-)
