Brought in to replace our Guatemala Atitlan, this organic coffee is a washed proccess regional blend of Bourbon, Caturra, Sarchimor, Anacafe, and Villalobos varietals. We have roasted this coffee to emphasize its smooth, full body characteristics with flavours that remind us of chocolate, nuts, and dried fruit. 
 
Enjoy as filtered coffee, or espresso.
 
More on where the coffee comes from and the youth who are growing it:
 
This organic certified coffee is grown by 70 young entrepreneur's in Santa Cruz Barillas, Huehuetenango, Guatemala. These youth are a part of the ASOBAGRI program aiming to empower young locals who are seeking to remain in their communities. Many are the sons and duaghters of coffee farmers who have witnessed first hand how the coffee industry has made it hard for farmers to make a living. ASOBAGRI is promoting the next generation of producers who grew up in this spectacularly rugged and isolated corner of Guatemala. These young people recognize that they live in a cultural oasis and they are keen on preserving their indigenous heritage, distinct clothing, and language. But they are also keen on showing the world that they are talented coffee growers and more. ASOBAGRI has taken the coffee produced by this youth movement to create a lot called Los Jovenes. Profits from the sale of Los Jovenes is reinvested into youth projects designed to support innovation and diversification for the next generation. The ASOBAGRI youth movement has been focused on improving coffee seed banks, investigating new organic technology for biofertilization, and developing barista, cupping and business skills through the Café Armonía program.
