Fazenda Água Limpa is a traditional property in coffee production, located in the Municipality of Cristina, State of Minas Gerais, in the Southern Minas Gerais region. Coffee is produced in the farm since 1910.
Acquired by the Pereira family in 1917, Fazenda Água Limpa enhanced coffee production from that year onwards, and obtained good results. Up to now, the Farm has obtained an excellent production performance, both in quality and in quantity.
To further improve the quality of the coffees produced at the farm, the current owner and heir, Mr. José Clênio Pereira, decided to make more investments and since 2000, the farm has conquered important results in the major specialty coffee contests of Brazil.
Coffee processing system
Fazenda Água Limpa's coffee is processed by the pulped natural method using the humid system. After the coffee is picked, it is dried in cemented terraces, bean by bean on the first day, and then turned every 30 minutes. After drying, the coffee is stored in bins at 11% of humidity.
Concern with quality
Fazenda Água Limpa follows the directions and monitoring of the agronomist of the region and also the instructions of associations such as BSCA that are always working toward enhancing special coffees production excellence.
