Wholesale Quiché, Guatemala

MASL: 1,350-1,650 Varietal: Caturra, Sarchimor, Bourbon Tasting notes: Caramel, Chocolate, Green Apple, Watermelon Collected from micro-growers across a half-dozen villages in the mountainous region of Quiché Guatemala, these are the beans that launched Downtown CREDO. They awakened the conviction that coffee can be a thread of impact across oceans and cultural barriers. Organized by our friend Walter (who’s working on development efforts in the region) and imported through a colleague, we buy this coffee as directly as possible. It has built a decade long partnership that has allowed for the growth of their production efforts and thousands of conversations.
