"The best tasting coffee for you is one that you discover for yourself. Avoid sticking with specific brands, which hide the coffee origin from you."

From the North of Brazil, the coffee fields started to spread along the country, concentrating in the areas along the shore. From 1820, coffee began to occupy the position of the most exported products from Brazil and by 1840; Brazil became the largest coffee exporter of the world"
