This great workhorse is the crowd pleaser! This will keep every variety of coffee drinker MORE than happy. It hails from Guatemala in the San Marcos region from the farm of Nueva Grenada. It has a heavy mouthfeel, with notes of bakers chocolate, and hazelnut.
Nestled between Guatemala's tallest volcanoes, Tajumulco and Tacana, the coffee trees at Finca Nueva Granada sit high on mountainous slopes in soil made rich by volcanic ash. After picking, employees use the farm's spring water source to pulp the cherries, washing and grading the coffees before they are dried on patios.
This season, we're proud to collaborate with these producers again, continuing to build our 15- year relationship with Guatemala's first Rainforest Alliance-certified farm. We're happy to provide this Strictly Hard Bean, Rainforest Alliance-certified estate coffee, which is a consistent offering on our lists each year.
This Bourbon varietal from Finca Nueva Granada was grown at an altitude of 1,800 meters above sea level in the western highlands of Guatemala. In this agricultural community, Finca Nueva Granada provides onsite schooling for employees' children. In addition, the organization prioritizes funding the Fundación para Niños Quemados de Guatemala, an organization that provides timely care in cases of pediatric burn accidents.
