Blind Assessment
Bright, juicy, floral-toned. Lemon blossom, myrrh, sage honey, almond, white peppercorn in aroma and cup. Rich, high-toned acidity; silky, vibrant mouthfeel. Sage honey and myrrh carry the rich-toned finish.
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 and Finca El Pintado 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. Visit El Gran Cafe’s website for more information.
Bottom Line
A complex, harmonious, savory-leaning washed Guatemala Geisha — richly floral, enigmatically spice-toned, deeply sweet.
