Cultivated in the lush highlands of Guatemala, this lot comes from El Morito, a renowned farm situated at elevations between 1,800 and 2,000 meters above sea level. The farm is known for its meticulous agricultural practices and dedication to quality. With a strong focus on biodiversity and long-term soil health, the environment is carefully preserved to support both sustainable farming and exceptional cup profiles.

🌾 Varietal & Processing

This micro-lot features the Pacamara variety, celebrated for its large bean size and complex, expressive flavor. The coffee is fully washed, with mucilage thoroughly removed before drying. This traditional method enhances the cup's clarity, structure, and vibrancy, allowing the intrinsic qualities of the variety to shine.

🍽️ Tasting Profile & Cup Notes

The cup delivers a dynamic and elegant experience. Expect notes of red apple, juicy mango, and floral honey, supported by hints of cocoa nib and orange zest. The acidity is bright and layered, while the body is velvety and full. A clean structure and lingering sweetness create a sophisticated and balanced finish, with subtle complexity unfolding in every sip.

🎯 Roasting & Brewing

Roasted with a gentle curve using a light air-based profile, typically around 8 minutes with a 50–55 second development time to preserve sweetness and aromatics.
