GUATEMALA
Mountain Water Process
Rony Asencio
Spicy sweetness with medium body and light acidity
This coffee is grown in the Sierra de Las Minas mountain range in eastern Guatemala. Rony Asencio and his family have been growing coffee here since 1990 and have planted Caturra, Bourbon and Catimor varietals. The coffee is processed using the washed method and then carefully sundried before shipment to Mexico for decaffeination. We currently use this coffee for the decaffeinated espresso in our shops and find that it has a pleasing sweetness in a straight espresso as well as complexity when taken with milk. Brewed through filter the coffee has a depth and robustness not usually associated with decaffeinated coffees.
