Guatemala Huehuetenango Candelaria Coffee
Specialty Cup Score: 84.75
This Nerd Java Guatemala HC coffee has notes of milk chocolate, almond, apricot, and brown sugar, and though it is naturally mid-acidic, is slow-roasted to perfection, reducing the acidity to a low 5pH.
The Huehuetenango regional farms sit high in the mountains, ranging from 5,000 – 6,500 feet (2,000 masl). This region owes its rich flavor to the dry, hot winds that blow in from Mexico’s Tehuantepec Plain.
The Medium Roast is tea-like, with fruity and sweet notes, while the dark roast has rich chocolate and almond notes, accompanied by an undertone of dried fruit. Both roasts have a tangy aftertaste that hits the sides of the tongue. The Medium roast shares a similar conceptual approach to our Tanzania Medium roast, albeit with distinct fruity notes. In contrast, the dark roast’s fruit notes are slightly more subtle, akin to chocolate with fruit embedded in its layers.
