Brazil | Nossa | Mixed Varieties Natural
Pickup availability
80 Somersby Falls RD, Somersby NSWThis coffee’s roasted in our espresso style — but that doesn’t mean you need to brew it as espresso. You can make it however you like — espresso, filter, moka pot, AeroPress or whatever you enjoy. We roast it a touch darker than we would a filter roast to caramelise the sugars and bring out smooth chocolatey and nutty flavours that cut beautifully through milk.
When you add milk the natural sweetness, fat and proteins tend to soften acidity and highlight caramelised flavours. That’s why lighter filter roasts can sometimes taste a bit sharp or sour with milk — they’re simply not built for it. Espresso roasts being more developed balance this out. The deeper caramelisation creates toffee and cocoa notes that blend harmoniously with milk’s creaminess while a hint of gentle bitterness adds that satisfying ‘coffee punch’ in your flat white or cappuccino.
If you prefer your coffee black this roast will still give you a full-bodied rich cup with plenty of depth and sweetness. For a lighter fruitier experience you might enjoy exploring our filter range instead.

About the Nossa Program
Nossa is a partnership between Cafe Imports, Bourbon Specialty and SOS Mata Atlantica to protect and restore Brazil's Atlantic Forest biome, which today holds only about 12% of its original forest. The purchase of this coffee directly supports the restoration of 277 acres in the renowned Vale da Grama growing area of Sao Sebastiao da Grama - funding native tree planting (SOS Mata Atlantica has planted over 40 million since 1986), safe-water monitoring, watershed protection, and support for producers adopting regenerative practices. In the cup: mild caramel and malt flavours with mellow sweetness - a smooth, dependable espresso base that gives back.
About the Varieties
Nossa is built from Brazil's common commercial varieties - Bourbon, Yellow Bourbon, Catuai, Maracaturra, Maragogype and Typica among them - grown across the Vale da Grama and blended for a smooth, dependable espresso profile rather than single-cultivar expression.
Natural processing on patios lends the classic Brazilian character: mild caramel, malt and nutty creaminess with tempered fruit. It is a coffee designed to be an everyday base - with every bag funding Atlantic Forest restoration through SOS Mata Atlantica.
