Guatemala, Peña Blanca, Honey Maragogype
Plum • Caramel • Balanced
This lot showcases the transformative power of the honey process. By allowing the coffee to dry with its sweet mucilage intact, Sal and Marielisa have fundamentally altered the variety's classic profile. The delicate floral notes are transformed into deep, ripe fruit, while the body becomes heavier and more rounded. The result is a complex, integrated, and exceptionally balanced cup that highlights the versatility of the Maragogype variety.
