this is a washed guatemalan coffee from huehuetenango, a high-altitude region in the country's northwest known for its distinct growing conditions. the washed process removes the fruit before drying, which tends to produce a cleaner cup that keeps the bean's core character front and center. expect stone fruit in the cup, think peach or nectarine rather than anything jammy or fermented. mill city roasters is the roaster behind this one. it suits filter brewing well, where the clarity of the washed process comes through cleanly. grind medium, keep your water around 93-96°c, and avoid over-extraction, which can muddy the fruit.

common questions

How is Guatemala - Huehuetenango Quetzal, Washed grown and processed?

it is grown in huehuetenango, a high-altitude region in northwestern guatemala. after harvest it is washed processed, meaning the fruit skin and mucilage are removed before the beans are dried, which produces a cleaner, more defined cup.

How should I brew Guatemala - Huehuetenango Quetzal, Washed?

filter methods such as pour over or drip work well here, since the clarity of washed processing is best appreciated in a clean, transparent brew. use a medium grind and avoid excess brew time, which can dull the stone fruit character.
