Guatemalan

Description

Our Guatemalan is a great introduction to specialty coffee.

Origin: Guatemala
Region: Huehuetenango
Farm: Various small farmers
Variety: Bourbon, Caturra, Catuai Typica, Maragogype, Pache
Altitude: 5,200 – 5,950 ft above sea level
Process: Washed Method

Tasting Notes: When ground, brewed / extracted properly we detect a sweet lemon and toffee with creamy mouthfeel and slight almond note.

In the Maya Q’qnjobal dialect in the region, “waykan” means “star, or light that shines in the sky at night.”  The indigenous population in and around Huehuetenango plays a large role in the coffee production here, and coffee accounts either directly or indirectly for roughly 80 percent of the local economy.

Never run short on coffee! With a Guatemalan subscription, you will receive 12 ounce bags of whole bean coffee, or ground to your specifications, each month, with FREE SHIPPING. You control shipments! Consider a 5Lb bag for a multi-coffee-drinker household. We will grind the 5Lb bag too on request.
