SPECIALTY BRAZILIAN GREEN COFFEE BEANS

Brazil is the world’s largest coffee producer and accounts for roughly 35% of global coffee supply in many market reports. That scale, combined with diverse growing regions, makes Brazilian coffee well known for consistency and quality.

One of the most important coffee regions in Brazil is Minas Gerais, which accounts for over 50% of the country’s coffee production. The region’s high altitudes, rich soils, and stable climate create ideal growing conditions. This results in well-balanced beans that are highly valued by roasters around the world. Coffee from Minas Gerais is especially known for its sweetness, clean cup, and versatility across different roast levels.

Thanks to this combination of scale, expertise, and natural conditions, Brazilian green coffee beans are a reliable and popular choice for both professional and home roasters alike, making them highly sought after by coffee lovers worldwide.

Buying green coffee beans gives you control over roasting: you can adjust profiles, temperatures, and development time to shape flavour precisely for your customers or your own taste.

Green coffee beans have a much longer shelf life than roasted beans, preserving their freshness for months. As a general rule, many specialty roasters consider green coffee “fresh” for around 6 to 12 months when stored correctly, while roasted coffee typically loses peak aromatics much faster once it’s exposed to oxygen and time.

For roasters, green coffee beans make it possible to experiment and improve technique batch by batch, whether you’re aiming for a lighter, brighter roast or a heavier, more robust profile.

Shipping green coffee beans from Brazil to Ireland is a precise process, ensuring they arrive fresh and ready for roasting. Here’s how we do it:

Farm to Port: We work closely with trusted Brazilian farmers to select the finest beans, which are then stored in an appropriate warehouse.

Packaging: Beans are sealed in jute bags with GrainPro liners to shield them from temperature changes, humidity, and damage during transit.

Specialised Shipping: We partner with logistics experts who use specific containers to maintain optimal conditions and prevent degradation during shipping.

Warehousing: Once in Ireland, beans are stored in climate-controlled warehouses to preserve their freshness, away from light, heat, and moisture.

Delivery: After your order is placed, we ensure prompt delivery, carefully preparing and shipping your beans with the same attention to detail that we give them from farm to cup.

From farm selection to final delivery, we take every step to ensure your green coffee beans arrive in perfect condition, ready for your next roast.

Single-origin coffee refers to coffee beans coming from one specific region, farm, or lot. Blended coffee combines beans from multiple origins to achieve a consistent target taste. At Emerald Trade Coffee, we are passionate about single-origin beans because we believe they showcase the true essence of a specific location’s terroir: the unique climate, soil, and cultivation methods that shape the flavours of the beans.

We focus exclusively on single-origin coffees and work directly with trusted farmers to ensure full traceability. From harvest to your roaster, we know exactly where and how the beans were grown.

By offering single-origin coffee, we provide not only exceptional quality but also a deeper connection to the story behind the beans. Every batch has its own unique flavour profile. By knowing the specific farm, region and lot, we can ensure you’re getting the purest expression of Brazilian coffee, straight from the source.

Yes. We can offer samples so you can try the beans before committing to a larger order. This allows you to experiment with different roast profiles and see how our beans perform with your equipment and roasting techniques.

If you’d like to try a specific batch or learn more about our beans, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’ll be happy to arrange samples for you, answer any questions you may have, and help you find the perfect green coffee beans for your roasts. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we want to make sure you’re confident in your choice.

Absolutely! We understand that every roaster has their own vision for the perfect cup, and sometimes, you may need a very specific flavour profile, origin, or technical specification. Whether you’re after a bright, fruity acidity, a smooth, chocolatey sweetness, or a bold, nutty body, we can source green coffee beans that match your exact preferences.

In addition to flavour, we can help you with other important factors that impact the final cup, such as screen size, cupping scores, and variety.

If you’re looking for something unique or have a custom project in mind, we’d love to help. Please feel free to reach out, and we can discuss your requirements in more detail. We’re committed to delivering the perfect green coffee beans for your roasting needs.

At Emerald Trade Coffee, we believe that green coffee beans are like little emeralds: carefully cultivated, full of potential, and precious in their raw form. Just as an emerald gemstone needs to be carefully cut and polished to reveal its true beauty, our green coffee beans are treated with the same attention and care, ensuring they shine through in every roast.

We’re based in Ireland, famously known as the Emerald Isle, and we wanted to honour both the rich green landscapes of Ireland and the natural beauty of Brazilian coffee beans. So, we treat each coffee bean as a rare gem, ready to bring out the best flavours and aroma for you to enjoy.

Whether you’re roasting for yourself or crafting that perfect espresso for your customers, we want you to experience the treasure that is quality green coffee.
