Parceiros do Cafe
Parceiros do Cafe is an exclusive Bellwether blend drawn from four family-run farms across the Minas Gerais region of Brazil. Natural-processed and thoughtfully roasted, this lot is a creamy, comforting cup with flavors of honey, vanilla, milk chocolate, and peanut brittle. It is also purchased at Living Income Pricing, meaning every bag helps close the income gap for the farmers who grew it.
Tasting Profile

Origin Story
Minas Gerais, Brazil
Parceiros do Cafe (which translates to "Coffee Partners") is an exclusive Bellwether lot built from the careful work of four family-run farms across Minas Gerais, Brazil's most important coffee-growing state: Boa Vista, Fazenda Furnas, Mato Cipo, and Apostolo Simao. Each farm brings its own signature quality to the blend, and together they produce a cup that is consistently clean, sweet, and comforting. These partnerships were built on two pillars: outstanding cup quality and a shared commitment to data transparency from the farm all the way to the roaster. That traceability is the backbone of how this lot is sourced. Just as important, this coffee is purchased using Bellwether's Living Income Pricing benchmark. About 80% of coffee farmers worldwide live below the poverty line, and prices paid for coffee often fall short of what producers need to earn a sustainable living. By pricing against the actual cost of a decent life, Living Income Pricing helps close the gap. Every bag of Parceiros do Cafe helps interrupt that cycle of poverty, one cup at a time.
