The Veloso family has been producing specialty coffees in the Cerrado Mineiro region in the countryside of coffee-rich Minas Gerais, Brazil, for decades. This coffee is grown on the family's Paraiso and Santa Cecilia farms on wide plots surrounded by protected wildlife regions. The Velosos maintain 38% of their land as natural forest—well above the Brazilian agricultural regulation of 20%.

Its sister component comes from an area of Colombia where the Andes mountains split into three separate mountain ranges called “cordilleras.” Between the Central and Eastern Cordilleras, you’ll find the El Paraiso growers' association in Tarqui, whose members are unified by community values that support relentless innovation in quality and environmental sustainability.
