Mike’s Mind Melts – Brazil Espresso Coffee

Milk Chocolate • Watermelon • Maple Syrup

Somewhere between your first sip and your second… things start to bend a little.

Mike’s Mind Melts is one of those coffees that sneaks up on you. It looks like your classic Brazil espresso—smooth, chocolatey, easy-going—but then boom… a flash of watermelon sweetness, a ripple of maple syrup, and suddenly you’re not where you started.

This is Brazil, but not as you expect it.

🇧🇷 Brazil Coffee Ireland – A New Kind of Espresso

Sourced from Fazenda Capoeira in Sul de Minas, this coffee is grown by Marisa and Gabriel Contreras, two producers who didn’t just inherit coffee—they built it from the ground up.

Their farm sits at 1,000 MASL, where warm days and cool nights help develop sweetness, body, and clarity—everything you want in a proper espresso coffee in Ireland.

But what makes this coffee special isn’t just the origin—it’s the obsession with detail:

• Multiple processing methods (Natural, Pulped Natural & Fermentation) layered together
• Careful cherry selection and drying
• Bee-supported pollination across the farm (yes… actual bees shaping your cup)

All of it adds up to a coffee that’s rich, expressive, and just a little bit wild.

☕ Tasting Notes

• Milk Chocolate – smooth, comforting base
• Watermelon – bright, juicy pop that lifts the cup
• Maple Syrup – lingering sweetness that ties it all together

It’s creamy, balanced, and just weird enough to keep things interesting.
