The Guatemala Finca Alvarado coffee grows on a small farm under shading trees irrigated by water from a natural spring. Limestone and the warm winds of the Huehuetenango region add the final touches to the optimal growing environment.

The roast master Tommi Hulkkonen of Punainen Kirahvi describes the roasting of this coffee like this:

“The roasting of this coffee proved to be exceptionally difficult. The coffee is so multifaceted that deciding the best flavour profile from many good options was almost impossible. Finally, we decided on a roast that contains some more dark flavours. The coffee has now acidity of green apples, a full mouthfeel and loads of caramel that has qualities from wine and sweet tobacco.”
