Proud Mary Coffee

LIMITED | BRAZIL | Santuario Sul | Pacamara | Anaerobic Natural

Santuário Sul in Carmo de Minas, Brazil, represents a deliberate departure from traditional Brazilian coffee production. Founded by Luiz Paulo Dias Pereira, the farm functions as a living laboratory where over 30 cultivars are planted and managed separately, each monitored closely through harvest to understand how altitude, soil, and process shape their expression. This Pacamara—a variety uncommon in Brazil—undergoes extended anaerobic fermentation that builds high sweetness and a textured, coating mouthfeel. The result is a distinctly exploratory take on Brazilian coffee, tied to a producer willing to push boundaries.
