Blind Assessment
Crisp, quietly sweet. Brazil nut, carob, dried orange zest, carnation, muted raisin in aroma and cup. Savory structure with tart acidity; dry, velvety mouthfeel. Quiet nut-toned finish.
Notes
Produced by Higinio Gómez of Beneficio La Esperanza, entirely of the Yellow Caturra variety of Arabica, and processed by the washed method (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried). El Gran Cafe is a coffee shop located in the heart of Antigua, Guatemala whose mission is to roast and serve organic-certified coffees produced at its own Finca La Esperanza just outside of town. Featured in El Gran Cafe’s lineup are also coffees from friends and neighbors in the region, along with award-winning and exceptional coffees from other regions of Guatemala.

Bottom Line
An accessible, very crisp cup with delicate nut tones as anchor.
