Whole-bean specialty coffee from Guatemala, roasted in Berlin by The Barn. Medium roast, perfect for all brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the notes of maple syrup and yellow plum.



Origin: Guatemala


Region: Antigua


Farm: Ricardo Zelaya


Processing: Washed


Variety: Caturra & Bourbon


Altitude: 1700 m a. s. l.


Cuping score: 86 / 100 



THE CUP


Santa Clara has a deliciously balanced profile. Sweet like maple syrup, with notes of malt and soft yellow fruit. A touch of citric acidity and smooth texture make this coffee delicious through milk.



ABOUT THE FARM


Finca Santa Clara is located in the fertile Antigua valley, Guatemala. Surrounded by three volcanos, it has been in operation since 1930. Our partner Ricardo Zelaya is the fourth generation of his family to farm here. He introduced a dedicated approach to quality, winning the precious Cup of Excellence award in 2001. On the slopes of the Volcán de Agua, the estate climbs to an elevation of up to 2050m, with the Caturra and Bourbon in our lot grown between 1650 and 1700m. A quarter of the estate remains preserved forest, encouraging the biodiversity in which coffee thrives.



THE PROCESS


For this lot, Ricardo used a traditional washed method. The freshly harvested cherries are first pulped to remove the outer skin, then fermented. After washing, the beans are dried on African beds inside a specially designed greenhouse. Our lot took around 21 days to dry, a slow process encouraging balance and complexity.



ROASTERS OPINION


Introducing our new Winter Coffee. From our partner Ricardo Zelaya, the smooth sweetness of this lot really stood out: a perfect daily espresso or easy-drinking filter coffee.
