ROAST PROFILE
When
roasted light to medium roast
, this Guatemalan coffee brews
a complex cup with underlying caramel sweetness and a soft fruit acidity of red grape & peach. A
wonderful nougat and brown sugar sweetness lingers in the finish.
If you wanted to accentuate more of rich sweetness in the coffee and back off the acidity, we recommend lowering the gas a good bit before first crack to allow you to develop more sugars towards the end of the roast. Or try shorting the development to make the fruit notes pop!
Dark roasts
develop layers of dark toffee sweetness with raisin and blackberry jam fruits notes. We
think no matter what you do, this coffee will delight and impress!
A really versatile Guatemalan coffee that will yield a sweet, complex cup of coffee at a wide range of roasts.
FARM PROFILE
Guatemalan coffee is arguably the crown jewel of Central America.
Our organic Guatemalan coffee is farmed on the Zelaya Estate renowned for producing some of the best specialty coffees in Guatemala.
The farm is located in Antigua, a region that sits between three volcanoes (Fuego, Acatenango & Agua).
Antigua coffee is known for having a full and velvety body, a rich and lively aroma, and a fine acidity.
