GUATEMALA SPECIAL RELEASE

ABOUT Finca Medina

Southwest of Guatemala City, under the imposing shadows of the La Horqueta volcanic complex, lies Finca Medina. Over thousands of years, the region's three peaks — Agua, Fuego, and Acatenango, all over 12,000ft tall — have produced a rich, fertile soil that presents perfect conditions for growing outstanding coffee.

The bourbon varietals growing in this verdant land thrive under the canopies of gravilea and inga trees. Combined with low humidity, sunny days, and cool nights, this shade-grown coffee is elegant and balanced, with a rich, sweet finish.

Our summer special release from Rainforest Alliance certified Finca Medina is a natural processed coffee, dried on African (raised) beds for around 30 days ensuring optimal flavour balance. First impressions reminiscent of Liquorice Allsorts mellow to a soft, stewed strawberry finish. This coffee set a new record for the fastest our team has polished off an entire bowl on the cupping table… we couldn't get enough of it!
