INTRO

This fudgey goodness tastes as if you are drinking a chocolate brownie with a sticky caramel and toffee body to it. SL.OW's first single-origin espresso from Brazil in a very long time — and they are very proud to offer it.

Oh My Fudge! is your ultimate Easter pairing: rich, indulgent, and impossibly sweet. Sourced via Cofinet from the Capim Seco farm in Carmo De Minas, this Acaia natural is Brazilian espresso at its finest — deep, confectionery, and completely irresistible.

THE PRODUCER

Carmo De Minas is a renowned municipality in the Sul de Minas region of Minas Gerais — one of Brazil's most celebrated coffee-growing areas — known for producing some of the country's most complex and expressive specialty lots. The Capim Seco farm is situated at altitude in this fertile landscape, with conditions ideal for the slow natural drying that builds the deep sweetness and confectionery character that Oh My Fudge! delivers.

The Acaia variety — a Brazilian cultivar developed from Mundo Novo and Bourbon genetics — is prized for its dense body, exceptional sweetness, and suitability for natural processing. Sourced through Cofinet, SL.OW's Colombian import partner who also operates in Brazil, this lot represents a deliberate choice: the most fudge-like coffee they could find for espresso.

THE PROCESS

The Natural process at Capim Seco involves:

• 🍒 Selective Harvest — Fully ripe cherries harvested at peak sugar content
• ✅ Sorting — Cherries sorted by density and quality
• ☀️ Natural Drying — Whole cherries laid on raised beds and dried in the sun
• 📅 Extended Drying — Slow drying over several weeks concentrates chocolate and caramel sweetness
• 🔧 Dry Milling — Dried cherry removed once optimal moisture is reached

The natural process allows the fruit's sugars to fully permeate the bean during drying, building the signature chocolate brownie and caramel fudge character that defines this espresso.

THE CUP

A rich, dessert-like espresso of exceptional depth. Chocolate brownie leads with a deep, bittersweet warmth; caramel fudge and toffee build into a luxuriously sticky sweetness; peanut slab adds a gentle nuttiness on the finish. Full-bodied, velvety, and deeply satisfying — exactly as fudgey as the name promises. Best enjoyed 2–4 weeks post roast.
