This Guatemala coffee is filter roast single origin coffee, roaster’s pick, hand selected by the fine folks who source, cup, and roast. This is designed for any filter method, plunger, aeropress or pour over. It’s seasonal, changing throughout the year as fresh crop coffee arrives into the country. We look for specialty coffee lots that are sweet, clean,  juicy, with unique and memorable flavour.

  • SHB – Strictly Hard Bean, specifies that the coffee was grown at an altitude above 1350 meters. Coffee grown at a higher altitude and lower temperature produces a slower maturing fruit and a denser bean; which creates a more desirable specialty cup.
  • EP – European Preparation means that green coffee was sorted by hand to remove any defective beans and foreign material. Which is 100% above screen 15; allows a max. of 8 defects per 300g (by contrast an ‘American Preparation’ is 100% above screen 13, and allows 23 defects per 300g, but only for washed arabicas).
