Brazil — Santos SCR 17/18 Fine Cup (Dulce)

Origin: Santos, Brazil

Profile: Smooth, Nutty, and Naturally Sweet

This Santos SCR 17/18 represents the quintessential Brazilian cup profile, sourced specifically for Covâ Coffee’s Dulce selection. Grown at lower altitudes compared to East African or Central American varieties, this coffee is processed using the natural method, allowing the cherry’s sugars to dry onto the bean.

The “SCR 17/18” designation refers to the large, uniform screen size of the beans, which ensures an incredibly consistent roast and a balanced, predictable flavor in every brew.

Flavour Experience

Body: Creamy and heavy-bodied with low acidity.
Notes: Deep layers of roasted hazelnut, milk chocolate, and a distinct brown sugar sweetness.
Finish: Clean and lingering with a soft, malty aftertaste.

Best Enjoyed As

While versatile, this Fine Cup grade excels as a traditional espresso base or a comforting French Press. It cuts through milk beautifully, making it the ideal choice for lattes and cappuccinos where its “Dulce” (sweet) characteristics can truly shine.
