This is our seventh season receiving the Sao Silvestre crop, we are very fortunate to have built such strong relations with Ismael & Eduardo and our working relationship continues to see progress year on year.
Process
The cherries are collected with the help of mechanical harvesters and brought to the farm. They are carefully selected and graded, all impurities are removed and the cherries are pulped. Sticky parchment beans with the mucilage still attached are then spread out onto raised beds where they are slowly dried over the course of 2 weeks. During this time they are turned multiple times a day and further manual selection is taken place. When the beans are dried the parchment is removed at the on-farm dry mill.

All our coffee beans are roasted locally on site in Belfast, Northern Ireland by our expert team of roasters.
Our speciality coffee can be purchased as whole bean or ground for your preferred brew method.
We first tried this coffee in our local cafe and loved it. We initially started buying it from the cafe as they stocked it. But it’s great that I’ve been able to set up a subscription directly with Bailies which means it’s delivered to our house and in the bigger bag.
Brazil Sao Silvestre has been my favourite coffee to date.
Really enjoy this coffee and keep returning to it as a great go-to
Excellent, very smooth and fruity. We had a 1kg bag free with the purchase of a Sage dual boiler and will be ordering again.
Absolutely love the Sao Silvestre beans - always have a kilo bag of these as my "house" coffee. Smooth, classic coffee taste - everyone I give it to loves it; from people who are into coffee and people who don't really care. Can't go wrong with it! Also, Bailies have ridiculously fast shipping. Don't know what wizards you have working in the shipping dep but it's rare that I don't get next day delivery. Top notch all around : ) Thanks!
Love all bailies coffee
