Guatemala Bosques de San Francisco Nº 52

Finca Santa Elisa is located near the town of San Pedro Yepocapa in Guatemala’s Acatenango region. Rich volcanic soils, cool temperatures and cloud forests create ideal conditions for growing high-quality speciality coffee. This coffee from Santa Elisa is a beautifully balanced classic. We’ve roasted it to bring out its natural sweetness, fresh fruit notes and delicate honeyed florals. As the sugars caramelise during roasting, rich milk chocolate flavours develop, creating a smooth, versatile and seriously easy-drinking brew.

A Guatemalan sugarcane decaf sourced through Coffee Bird from farms around Atitlan. Muscovado sugar, baked plum, and hazelnut notes make it sweet, complex, and comfortably full-bodied.

It is common to roast Kenyan coffees extremely lightly, to highlight the dominant acidity. But in the case of the Sasini, we were impressed with its intense honey sweetness, and so developed the natural sugars a little further with a longer roast time, and higher temperature. This has resulted in a complex sweetness with subtle florals, black forest fruits and a hint of cocoa on the finish.

From the home of coffee itself, comes this washed lot from the Doyo Co-operative. The heirloom varietals grown here represent the legacy of coffee growing in this region - classic flavours and high desirability. This coffee was roasted to pull out the complex sweetness of sweet and salty malted milk chocolate whilst retaining a deep fruit note of raisin and subtle citrus flavour.
