Fazenda Dutra Red Catuai

Seasonal Series

Milk Chocolate | Toasted Almond | Brown Sugar | Soft Citrus

A comforting combination of chocolate sweetness, toasted nuts, and gently lifted fruit. Fazenda Dutra Red Catuai brings together notes of milk chocolate and toasted almond with the deeper sweetness of brown sugar. Dried cherry adds a rounded fruit character, while a soft citrus note gives the profile a bright counterpoint.

For a quiet morning brew or an afternoon pause, this is a coffee to explore slowly: a familiar chocolate-and-nut foundation with fruit and citrus adding another layer to the cup. Choose the Filter or Espresso roast to suit your brewing routine.
