【Note】
NCC is proud to introduce Nibra as THE BRAZIL coffee. Santos Nibra is imported by NCC, Nippon Coffee Trading Co., LTD, and grown with the full-contract. According to NCC, "Santos Nibra provides the highest quality and flavor coffee in Brazil, which has rich flavor and well balanced bitterness, sweetness and acidity as if they were blended."
Cerrado means "Closed" in Portuguese, which is the tropical savanna eco-region covers 24% of Brazil and has the biologically richest savanna in the world with high levels of endemism. Cerrado often called "Campo Cerrado", which means "Thick field" or "blind field" as I was taught. Brazilian government has encouraged pioneers to "cultivate" this area to grow soy beans, sugar cane, coffee and so on since 1970's. The farmers develop new land Agriculture in Cerrado aims to export. With this reality, Cerrado coffee leaves cynical and bitter feeling.
