Blind Assessment

Crisp, delicately sweet. Dried pear, caramel, pecan, orange zest, maple syrup in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart with gentle acidity; full, satiny-smooth mouthfeel. The gently crisp finish leads with caramel and notes.

Notes

Produced by Finca Rosario de Fátima entirely of the Bourbon variety of Arabica, and processed by the traditional 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. Visit https://El Gran.cafe for more information.

Bottom Line

A citrusy, crisply nut-toned cup with a maple syrup-like sweetness and pear undertones.
