A Brief History of Cold Brew Coffee:  The history of cold brew coffee is somewhat debated, but it is believed that in 1640, Dutch traders sailed to Indonesia, where they discovered a method of brewing coffee that involved steeping coffee beans in cold water for an extended period, which produced a coffee concentrate that could be diluted with water, making it an ideal drink for sailors on long voyages. The earliest documented record of cold brew coffee is called “Kyoto”, which originated in Japan during the 1600s. This type of coffee earned its name due to the popularity of the drink in the city of Kyoto.

Planalto da Bahia's high altitude and unique weather patterns have impacted the coffee tree behavior, productive cycle and the harvest and post-harvest process. Being higher and colder the maturation process for coffee in Planalto da Bahia is slower resulting in a more complex and aromatic sensorial experience.
