Bahia's moderate-altitude plateau in the southwest, around Vitória da Conquista, with sweet, citric cups.
Planalto da Bahia (also called Planalto de Vitória da Conquista) lies in southwestern Bahia at roughly 800-1,300 m, with a dry climate and cold nights. Coffees are described as markedly sweet with delicate citric acidity and yellow-fruit to caramel notes. Its geographic indication was still in process at the time of the source, and it is distinct from the irrigated farms of western Bahia.
