To find our friend Manuel’s coffee farm, you’ll need a sense of adventure, a sturdy vehicle and intimate knowledge of the Guatemalan countryside. A rugged road hugs the crystal blue waters of Lake Atitlán before turning up-mountain more than 1,000 feet into the lush, volcanic highlands. Here Manuel lovingly grows, washes and dries his coffee beans just as Guatemalan farmers have done for generations, producing some of the most vibrant and satisfying coffees in the world. The view from Manuel’s farm is exquisite, but if you can’t find the way, don’t despair. One sip of his coffee will take you there.
WHAT WE TASTE: Balanced, bright and satisfying, hints of cocoa, walnut, pomegranate and cream
BREWING RECOMMENDATIONS: Drip, French press or Aeropress - you can’t go wrong; great on its own or with a splash of cream
