From the producer

Estevão Douro produces coffee with his sons Denizar and Thiago on family land near Marechal Floriano. Intelligentsia says they revitalized the farm with new varieties and processing infrastructure.

From the roaster

Intelligentsia presents this as a Special Selection sourced through Osito, with the broad profile Caramel + Stone Fruit.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

A traceable Acauã selection from a family producer in Espírito Santo, where the Douros have paired renewed plantings with investments in on-farm processing.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

Variety separation

This lot was selected specifically as Acauã from a farm that grows several cultivars.

Washed classification

The exact release catalog identifies the coffee as washed, but does not publish the fermentation, washing, or drying sequence.

What was added?

Water is inherent to the documented washed process; no other processing input is disclosed.

What wasn't added?

No fruit, flavoring, spice, culture, or other processing input was documented. Their absence is not inferred.

Why it matters

The evidence supports a conventional washed classification while leaving the detailed processing protocol unresolved.

What you might taste

The exact catalog preserves Bing cherry, butterscotch, and citrus; Intelligentsia groups the profile as Caramel + Stone Fruit.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.
