About

Bright and lively, this early-season Guatemalan coffee comes from the lush hills of Zacapa, near the Honduran border. Sourced through the renowned FEDECOCAGUA cooperative, these beans are carefully hand-picked at lower altitudes, pulped, fermented in cool water tanks, and patio-dried for a clean, vibrant cup. Around 70% of FEDECOCAGUA's members are from indigenous communities across Guatemala. Coffee is their main livelihood, grown on small family plots shaded by fruit trees and supported by cooperative programs for credit, training, and sustainable farming. Sweet citrus and caramelized sugar lead to a smooth, nutty finish. A refreshing brew that signals the start of a new coffee harvest. Origin: Country: Guatemala | Region: Zacapa | Farm: Fedecocagua | Altitude: 900-1100 masl | Variety: Bourbon, Catuai, Caturra, Pache, Typica | Process: Washed

Roaster Notes

"Zacapa is an Extra Prime Washed coffee - an earlier harvesting coffee from lower altitudes that harvests first and heralds the new season. For most FEDECOCAGUA members, coffee is their main crop and can provide 90% of their income. Coffee is picked ripe, pulped, fermented in water tanks and then dried on patios."
