Guatemala, Peña Blanca, Pacamara
Orange Blossom - Molasses - Blueberry Tart
A prized hybrid of Pacas and the giant Maragogype, this Pacamara stands as another remarkable 'elephant bean' from Peña Blanca. In contrast to the delicate, floral profile of our Maragogype lot, this coffee delivers a powerful and complex cup. Sal and Marielisa's meticulous processing unlocks a wave of ripe fruit, a bright, sparkling acidity, and a long, sugary finish. This is a stunning expression of the Pacamara variety.
Coffee "C Market" Price - $4.14

Guilder's Price - $7.61
This is the final price we pay for this coffee. This includes any premiums we might pay to the producer to make sure they are receiving a sustainable margin.
