These high-quality coffee beans are grown in the Huehuetenango region of Guatemala at an altitude of 1,900 meters. This coffee is characterized by a fruity acidity reminiscent of ripe cherries and apples, and a smooth, caramel-like sweetness. When cooled, a gorgeous jasmine-like aroma spreads, and the palate is extremely clean and elegant.
This bright and refreshing coffee pairs perfectly with berry desserts and white chocolate sweets, as well as nutty pound cake and simple shortbread. Enjoy it for breakfast with buttery toast and fruit salad.
