Muiraquitã

A Muiraquitã is a symbol of fortune, good luck, prosperity and fertility.  The specific design on this bag is from a region of Brazil in the far north, where the frog is carved out in tiny amulets and often hung on a string as a necklace, to be gifted to one another.  It is very common for it to be presented to guests, new friends, and visitors to the region. Primarily carved out of jade, other stone, or wood, we chose this as the symbol for our Brazilian Cerrado because we want your coffee to be a symbol of prosperity and good fortune for you too. 

This origin comes from the Cerrado region of Brazil, known for the highest quality beans in the country. The World's largest producer of coffee, responsible for one-third of coffee consumed on the planet. It is grown on nearly 300,000 farms, where it is generally strip-picked and processed using the dry method. Light in body and medium-low in acidity, Brazilian beans are characterized by their earthy, nutty undertones. All coffee is roasted daily and fresh!
