Guatemala - Finca Aguas Altas (227 g)

Prepared on the Malabar coast during monsoon season. This rare and unusual bean takes 12-16 weeks of meticulous preparation. Growers pick the coffees, and lay them out in coastal sheds, where they absorb moisture from the windy air and increase in size. Notes: Floral & sweet, with spicey, earthy tones

From the Mchana Estate farm in Ruiru, Kiambu County - the largest single coffee farm in Kenya, this fully washed bean boasts some massive juicy flavours!   In 1950, the farm was acquired by an individual named Jas Nicoll.  He purchased 4 neighbouring farms in the area: N'gewe Estate, Kiki Estate, Mukuyu Estate and Mchana Estate, amalgamating them all into one entity - the Mchana Estata Coffee Farm.  Employing over 350 workers, all of which live on the grounds, the farm now produces over 2 tonnes per hectare. This rich and full bodied African feels like a very complete cup, balanced and rounded yet unique in flavour.  Sweet, tart notes of blood orange and currant followed by deep, toasty notes of roasted cocoa.   

Jamaican Blue Mountain is BACK!  We've sourced an exceptional Arabica from Clifton Mount Estate, located in the Newcastle region.  This arabica typica grows between 4,300-5,000 feet elevation and is prepared using a washed process.  The cup, while extremely balanced, boasts sweet and citrusy notes while rounding out with undertones of velvety cocoa.

Shade grown in the mountains of El Carrizal, using organic processing methods to protect the natural habitat of migratory birds and other wildlife.  Rio Olancho is a cooperative made up of over 60 plantations.  As part of our Direct Trade program, this bean comes from Arturo's farm in the Olancho district.
