Sourced from Guatemala's famed Atitlan region, these green coffee beans are grown at altitudes of 1550-1650 meters above sea level, ensuring a Strictly Hard Bean (SHB) grade. This lot is of superb quality, offering a cupping score of 83-85. Home roasters will appreciate the washed process that accentuates the crisp and pure notes of cherry, brown sugar, Tootsie Roll, and dark berries, making this batch ideal for those seeking a rich, flavorful roast. Roaster’s Choice Profile: Medium Roast We recommend a medium roast for these beans to best bring out their sweetness and enhance the natural berry flavors, while maintaining the subtle hints of cherry. This roast level perfectly balances the beans’ aromatic richness with their inherent brightness, ideal for home roasters aiming to achieve a smooth and balanced cup. Best Brewing Method A French Press will complement these beans well, emphasizing their full-bodied flavor and complex aroma, allowing the distinct notes of brown sugar and dark berries to shine through.
