Grown at 4,800-5,500 feet. Fully washed / dried on raised beds in a greenhouse. Dark chocolate, pear and honey flavors push this balanced, mildly sweet coffee from being a regular Guatemalan to another place. I put this is in a small press pot for a perfect sunset cup, but with enough body and brightness to drink it in the morning. The colors that evening were purple and pink over the western woods, and the coffee was just as beautiful as the sky.
Roasted FC and and especially good from a press. Not especially sweet for all the caramel flavor, balanced and very, very satisfying.

My absolutely favorite daily blend. This is a simple daily reminder that life is good, roasting great beans is worthwhile and a great French Press brew is the best way to start the day. I just bought another 25 lbs. to enrich my life and help me remember to thank God for microclimates, moisture and soil that produce such beans. I’m going to stop now, because I’m afraid you’ll raise the price, or your supply will be depleted. Coffee Bean Corral has become my go-to supplier for beans. Always reliable, providing what they accurately describe. I have yet to be surprised, or disappointed by them; which after years of spotty, hit-and-miss quality from other vendors is so satisfying.

Deep,full and nutty, this coffee has a refined balance without a trace of bitterness. Roasted it immy SR500 for 1 minute on low, then 4 minutes on high.

It is, as advertised, very very satisfying to drink. The honey/caramel flavors are especially noticable. If you hadn't used the pear descriptor I don't know that I would have thought to describe it that way. But it definitely is an apt description. Over all it producing an exceptionally distinctive cup of coffee.
