Blind Assessment
Richly sweet-savory, cocoa-toned. Cocoa powder, lily, black cherry, fresh-cut oak, agave syrup in aroma and cup. Balanced structure with brisk acidity; crisp, satiny mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to cocoa-toned black cherry and oak.
Notes
Produced by Alejandro Solís of Finca Huixoc entirely of the Geisha 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 understated Guatemala Geisha with cocoa-toned stone fruit and bittersweet florals throughout.
