Nestled in the beautiful Heliodora region in the state of Minas Gerais, in the foothills of the Mantiqueira mountain range, Carmo Estate has the advantage of lush forests and thriving biodiversity, making it a premier player in coffee production. Set about 950 to 1200 metres above sea level, the estate has a vast acreage of native forest with natural, mineral rich springs, thick trees, and a variety of fauna that coexist alongside the coffee plantations. All these elements make the land more fertile and create a microclimate that is ideal for coffee farming.
