Blind Assessment
Sweetly and richly enticing. Baker’s chocolate, Graham cracker, dried cranberry, orange blossom, fresh-cut cedar in aroma and cup. Crisp, balanced acidity; satiny mouthfeel. The richly drying finish consolidates to baker’s chocolate in the short finish, with aromatic wood notes resurfacing in the long.
Notes
Produced by Emilio Antonio Medina García at La Colina Farm from trees of the Caturra and Bourbon varieties of Arabica. Processed by the wet or washed method (fruit skin and pulp are removed before drying). Greater Goods is a small-batch wholesale and retail roasting company in Austin, Texas.

Bottom Line
A solid Guatemala cup: deeply sweet, with a chocolate throughline.
