Description
Our New Rarity Buena Vista has delivered some of our most memorable Guatemala coffees. 2025 was the first harvest of Sidra at the estate and we are excited to be the first to share it. After 48 hours of fermentation, the profile is alive with the tropical sweetness and complex florals. Close to the capital - Guatemala City - this is one of our favourite Guatemalan coffees of the season. Fredy Orantes is a true leader among the coffee growers in the town of Santa Rosa, and has worked tirelessly to maintain high standards in the field and during the harvest in order to produce the best possible coffees. Fredy is an expert with both larger lots and small microlots, and every aspect of coffee picking and processing is done with care in order to ensure top quality. Fredy is always thinking about sustainability on the farm. He actively cares for the variety of trees on the farm - grevillea and cuje are the most numerous but he also maintains other types of fruit trees and native trees. The soil is carefully maintained, and soil management includes the application of organic materials that have been composted such as fallen leaves and branches as well as coffee pulp. A variety of native animals and birds appear on the farm, and Fredy explains that the farm is not even fenced in; as in nature these creatures can come and go as they please. Fredy loves experimenting with different varieties and processes, and this lot is the perfect example of his efforts. He added about 1 hectare of Pacamara plants to his farm in 2019, and they have begun producing the large, red fruit for this lot.
