Coffee in Brazil

The Mogiana region, which runs along the São Paulo and Minas Gerais border, is home to some of the most consistently sweet and well-structured naturals produced in Brazil. The region boasts 3500 farmers cultivating a combined area of 202,000ha. We hand select lots from individual farms and process them to create a smooth, clean, highly consistent end product. Our goal with this coffee is to have a consistent profile from lot to lot, and year to year, making our Eagle Mogiana a coffee that you can rely on year-round.

Origin Spotlight: Brazil, Cerrado Mineiro

We finally went to origin. Not the romanticized, buzzword-heavy version. The actual farms. In about ten minutes standing in the dirt, we understood more about coffee than a decade of...

We spent our COVID stimmy check on something practical for our family… a respectable home coffee setup. Jumping in the wayback machine, we all remember what it was like for parents. Completing full-time work that got done in between all the things, including the kids’ remote learning around the kitchen table. We needed a roast that was versatile enough for pulling shots, pour-overs, and throwing in our Toddy. Smooth Operator was one of my go-to’s before, so it was an easy choice for our family. It’s been a constant in our daily ritual ever since.

The best roast!

Smooth Operator has been my favorite bean to use with my espresso machine. It’s a great medium roast, not to harsh but has a great taste! Smooth and delicious!

Flavor is on point and keeps me going all day

I run this through our espresso machine at home and I am hooked. I steam up a small amount of sweet cream with this coffee and it is so smooth. Very excited to order more!

Consistent in quality and taste

I order 5lbs of this blend for my home. I love the balanced smooth and sweet flavor. Most of the use is for espresso and espresso drinks, but it works great as a french press also.

I only buy Smooth Operator no matter where we live! The best of all!

First discovered Smooth Operator when I lived in KCMO. Now, no matter where we live, I have Smooth Operator shipped to our home! Even when we had a home in Costa Rica amid their coffee plantations I carried Smooth Operator with me to brew at home! A taste like none other.
