His sons, Gustavo and Rodrigo, helped where they could but pursued studies in the city. In 2014, when Gustavo returned to the farm, the family made a decisive pivot: they sold the herd and committed entirely to specialty coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRodrigo joined full-time in 2018, and together the brothers have built a farm that embraces innovation in both agronomy and post-harvest processing. They cultivate Catuguá, Yellow Bourbon, Paraiso, and Yellow Catuaí, and have invested in new varieties and methods with each passing harvest. A sustainable practice adopted is the cultivation of Brachiaria grass between the coffee plants — enriching the soil, reducing erosion, controlling nematodes, and protecting young plants from the wind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFazenda Chapadão has received multiple quality awards and has opened an on-farm roasting shop, deepening the family’s understanding of how their coffee expresses itself from cherry to cup. Their core purpose: to make exceptional specialty coffee more accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Natural process at Fazenda Chapadão involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍒 \u003cstrong\u003eSelective harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e — ripe cherries are hand-picked at peak sugar development\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eSorting\u003c\/strong\u003e — cherries are sorted to remove defects and ensure uniformity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e☀️ \u003cstrong\u003eRaised-bed drying\u003c\/strong\u003e — whole cherries are dried on raised beds, allowing the fruit pulp to impart sweetness and body over several weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e📅 \u003cstrong\u003eResting in husk\u003c\/strong\u003e — coffee is stored in its husk to prolong and improve quality before milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extended drying in whole fruit creates the characteristic richness, winey depth, and stone-fruit sweetness that define Fazenda Chapadão’s naturals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA very sweet and richly textured cup, with the Paraiso variety’s natural proclivity for fruit intensity coming through in every sip.
