The Little Details
This coffee comes from Antigua region in the country of Guatemala. It's grown 1600 to 2000 metres above sea level and it process is fully washed and sun dried on patios. It's 100% Java varietal coffee beans.
About the Process
This coffee is comprised of the Java varietal and is processed using the clean mountain spring water from the rich Antigua Valley. As soon as the coffee is picked, it is sorted by hand, and floated in a water silo to remove any floaters, or lower quality cherries. The cherries are then pulped at the Santa Clara wet mill, which is conducted via machine. The freshly washed beans are fermented for 12-14 hours to breakdown the exterior mucilage. Once complete, canals filled with water help clean the beans and remove any remaining mucilage or foreign matter before they are evenly dispersed on cement patios to dry. The beans remain here for 12-25 days, or until the ideal moisture content is reached. They are then hulled and prepared for export.
