Where do our rainforest organic coffee beans come from?

At Zoom Coffee Roasters, our journey is intricately tied to the stories of the remarkable coffee farms that cultivate the beans we proudly roast. Today, we're thrilled to share a glimpse into our partnership with the Dutra family—a beacon of sustainable coffee cultivation and a testament to the artistry of growing exceptional beans.

Dutra Family: Cultivating Sustainability Since 1950

Nestled within the embrace of Fazenda Dutra is a family legacy that dates back to 1950. Guided by the visionary José Dutra Sobrinho, the farm has blossomed from a one-hectare endeavor to a reference in sustainable farming practices. The Dutra family's harmonious collaboration with nature is a journey of growth, both in hectares and in eco-conscious farming.

Consistent Quality: A Symphony of Elements

Producing consistently high-quality coffee demands a symphony of elements—knowledge, innovation, technology, and, above all, a profound passion for the craft. Our commitment to excellence is woven into the fabric of our cultivars, the altitude at which they flourish, the climate they brave, the soil chemistry they thrive in, and the meticulous harvesting and processing conditions they undergo.

Sustainable Growth: Nurturing Biodiversity in Ecofriendly Plantations

Step into our ecofriendly coffee plantations, and you'll discover a thriving tapestry of biodiversity. From micro to macro habitats, the Dutra family's commitment to sustainability supports a myriad of flora and fauna. Within our crops, a symphony of plants, animals, insects, and birds coexist, creating a dynamic and vibrant ecosystem.

Family Farm: A Legacy of Dedication

Meet Osvaldina Dutra, a living testament to a lifetime dedicated to coffee. Recognizing the pivotal role of agriculture and processing, Osvaldina has tirelessly worked to enhance the quality of her coffee. Sons Ednilson and Walter join her in this familial pursuit, seamlessly blending administration with hands-on field expertise, ensuring the Dutra legacy lives on.

Sustainability - Low Carbon Emission: Powering the Future with Clean Energy

The Dutra family's commitment to sustainability extends to clean energy practices. Their Photovoltaic Solar Plant in Minas Gerais not only generates 276,000 KWh of electrical energy annually but also spares the atmosphere 192 tons of CO2 emissions. It's a forward-thinking approach that contributes to a cleaner, greener future.
