Fazenda Sertão

This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.

The story

José Isidro Pereira inherited the land that became Fazenda Sertão and returned to Carmo de Minas after his mother's death. He married Nazareth in 1949. Their children Francisco, Luiz Paulo, Glycia, and Sandra continued the family's coffee work, with Francisco, known as Chico, now identified as the producer for the exact Partners release.

Challenges

The farm's steep areas require careful management. Published area figures conflict slightly: CarmoCoffees reports 330 hectares of coffee and Partners reports 350, within an 850-hectare property.

Innovations

The estate maintains several processing options, including natural, pulped natural, washed, and fermented natural methods, while diversifying the property with bananas, corn, and dairy livestock.

Published coffees linked to this farm

For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.

Research sources & verification

These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
