    "content_text": "Taylors of Harrogate Brasilia: The Smooth One in the Range, in summary: Brasilia is the gentle one in the Taylors line-up: nutty, mellow, caramel-edged and low in acidity, with a medium body that holds milk. Its all-round grind suits a cafetiere, a filter machine or a pour-over.\nLast reviewed by the teas.co.uk team in September 2026.\nBrasilia is the Taylors coffee least likely to start an argument. Soft, nutty and short on sharpness, it suits the guest whose coffee habits you do not know and the house that mostly drinks tea.\nA coffee without the sharp edge \nThe name points towards Brazil, and the cup behaves the way a Brazilian-led coffee usually does: soft and rounded, with toasted nuttiness and soft caramel through the middle and none of the citrus brightness of an East African bean. Anyone who finds most coffee sour will be on safer ground here. For the exact origin wording, read the current pack, which can change between print runs.\nEach Taylors coffee has a roast strength number printed on its front, a useful bit of labelling that lets you place Brasilia against the other packs at a glance; read it there rather than trusting a figure quoted from memory. The body is medium, with enough weight to carry milk but never heavy, which is part of why a second cup comes so easily.\nGrind, dose and cups per pack \nThe grind is an all-rounder. Cafetiere, filter machine and pour-over cone all handle it as it comes, and a moka pot copes at a push, though a proper espresso basket wants something finer. Measured at 7g a cup, the 200g pack gives roughly 28 cups; a cafetiere dosed at 15g per 250ml gets about 13 mugs out of it.\nIn the kitchen, water decides which of the roaster's flavours reach the cup, so brew it with care: water just off the boil, a steady steep and a slow plunge. Fold the pack down tight after opening. The toasted, caramel aroma is the first thing to leave, and a pack left gaping goes quiet within a few weeks even though nothing in it has spoiled.\nBrasilia against the rest of the Taylors shelf \nTaylors is a Harrogate family firm, and plenty of people know it only through Yorkshire Tea without realising the same house roasts coffee. Alongside Brasilia we stock After Dark, Flying Start and Hot Lava Java, with the Decaff\u00e9 packs covering the decaffeinated side.\nChoose Brasilia when most of the household drinks tea, when guests are coming and you do not know how they take their coffee, or when a second cup matters more than a bold first one. Anyone who wants a coffee that bites back will find it too polite, and that restraint is exactly why it earns a place beside the stronger packs.\nThe packs we stock \n\nTaylors of Harrogate Brasilia Ground Coffee, 200g (barcode 615357752610)\n\nWhat the label says \nThe published ingredient list for Taylors of Harrogate Brasilia Ground Coffee, 200g names none of the 14 major allergens.

Smooth, nutty and mellow, with soft caramel and low acidity; it is the gentlest cup in the Taylors range.\nIs it made only from Brazilian coffee? The name points to Brazil and the cup reads that way, but origin wording can change between print runs, so check the current pack.\nWhich brewing methods suit the grind? Cafetiere, filter and pour-over all suit it, and a moka pot will manage, but a proper espresso basket needs a finer grind.\nDoes it take milk? Yes. The medium body holds milk without the coffee disappearing.\nHow far does a 200g pack go? Roughly 28 at a 7g measure, or about 13 cafetiere mugs at 15g per 250ml.\nCurator's note: This is the coffee to keep for the tea drinkers in the family. Serve it with milk and a butterscotch biscuit and nobody will ask for the teapot instead.
