Brazilian Santos [topic: beans]

Brazil is surely well known for its quality of coffee beans. It is a country with many producers who are prolific and dedicated for the bean. There might be problems there but their selection of coffee is vast.


From the wide range of coffee beans, Santos can be safely called a soft choice. This coffee is mostly common with people who enjoy milk and sugar with their cuppa because of the mild taste of coffee which blends well with other tastes. So much so, that coffee lovers who brew their espresso using this bean only, would normally be adventurous with some other tastes like cinnamon and chicory.


Some places have a coffee tradition which is not based on quality but more on the practical level of coffee. For example, mixing mild quality coffees such as the Santos bean with cinnamon and chicory and let coffee slowly simmer on fire so as to have coffee available all day long without experiences a bland taste of coffee.



A classic way of using beans such as Brazil Santos is in latte (macchiato) while a modern way of using these coffee beans is in iced coffee where the taste is refreshing, not too strong, ideal especially for the hot Summers we're having. Well, try it out ... you'll like it!

Stay tuned! In the mean time, keep spreading the love for the BEAN!
