A single origin washed Fair Trade Organic Guatemalan Huehuetenango.
Flavor Notes of toffee, fresh citrus, and caramelizing flavors with juicy acidity and fruit-like sweetness.
This is one a lot of people asked for! One of my top choices for espresso roasts, this Guatemalan coffee packs an awesome flavor profile. Enough flavor to punch through darker roasts and bring a diverse and enjoyable cup.
This coffee is available in various roast profiles in the options on this page. This roast is wonderful brewed with any method. I recommend a dark or espresso roast for espresso or pressurized brew methods.
