PERSONAL NOTES/FARM INFORMATION
Yummy yummy yummy. Just a nice cup of coffee. With a smooth acidity and strong coffee flavors this is another crowd pleaser for sure.
FARM INFORMATION
From the remote mountains of Huehuetenango, this 100% Catuai lot arrives from Jorge Mendez.
Jorge Mendez manages Finca El Apiario, which translates to “The Apiary” or “bee farm,” named for the beehives he also keeps on the land. As one of the family patriarchs, Jorge embodies the coffee wisdom and tradition passed down from the original founder, his father Juan Martinez.
The farm itself is located in remote, mountainous terrain, about an 8-hour drive from Guatemala City. The coffee plantations, growing at altitudes reaching 1,800 meters, cling to incredibly steep slopes. This “impossible terrain” creates unique microclimates and promotes slow cherry maturation, resulting in a denser, sweeter, more complex bean.

The hints of chocolate & lower acidity are AMAZING! Love the flavor of these beans can’t wait to have a second cup this afternoon already! So thankful for local, clean coffee beans
