Guatemalan Coffee

This versatile and sweet coffee from the Boqueroncito farm is a true delight. In lighter roasts, the dry grounds emit hints of loose-leaf tea layered over a sweet molasses base, which deepens into bittersweet cocoa roast tones and a touch of raisin at Full City roast. Adding hot water releases a buttery caramel sweetness complemented by a hint of blackberry tea, making this coffee superbly enjoyable to drink. Light roasts showcase a syrupy sweetness and structured acidity, while City+ brews reveal immense sweetness paired with brown sugar and a touch of aromatic spice. As the coffee cools, layers of caramelized sugars, dried apple, cinnamon-laced cocoa powder, and a zested lemon note unfold, contributing a pleasantly moderate acidity. The coffee exhibits incredible body at middle roasts, with light fruit undertones and deep chocolate roast flavors rounding out the middle and finish. It shines as a near-perfect single-origin espresso, with Full City and FC+ roasts offering layered bittersweet chocolate, drinking cocoa, and a hint of bittering to the aftertaste. Fruited accents such as dark plum and lemon rind punch through the bittersweet profile, enhancing the complexity.
