The plantation has varieties like Catuai 144, Catuai 51, Catiguá MG 3, Topázio and Catucai 2SL. Campos Altos has a unique terroir in Cerrado: the municipality makes the transition from the Western border of the Atlantic Forest biome to the Cerrado biome. Campos Altos State Park, with over 700 has of Atlantic Forest, is on the eastern border of the municipality. A few kilometres Northwest of the city, typical Cerrado areas begin. Coffee entered the region on slopes previously covered by the Atlantic Forest, only to climb much later to the Cerrado plateaus. The average annual temperature varies between 18.6° and 19.5°. Inhame is also UTZ certified and complies with strict environmental and labour regulations, such as: protecting natural ecosystems, preventing erosion and deforestation, maintaining wildlife corridors and protecting endangered species, conserving water and protecting local waterways, safeguarding nearby protected areas, improving soil fertility, managing solid waste, and using integrated pest management techniques to reduce the use of pesticides.
