Blind Assessment
Deeply sweet, intricately rich. Jasmine, date, pistachio, blood orange zest, coconut in aroma and cup. Delicate, sweetly tart acidity; liltingly satiny mouthfeel. The resonant, long finish is saturated with deep, continued notes of date, pistachio and coconut.
Notes
Produced by Juan Simón Velásquez from the Caturra and Bourbon varieties of Arabica. This is a wet-processed or “washed” coffee, meaning the fruit skin and pulp were removed from the beans immediately after harvesting and before drying. Barrington Coffee is an artisan roaster dedicated to elite coffees, fresh delivery and roasting that foregrounds the coffee and not the roast.

Bottom Line
A fine Guatemala cup: elegant, exotic, delicately but confidently composed.
