Guatemala Huehuetenango Tono Sanchez
Our first batch of Guatemala Huehuetenango Tono Sanchez is roasted and ready!
Antonio "Tono" Sanchez's farm is located in the Chichimes region of Huehuetenango and sits at about 1500-1800 masl. He has been a buyer for about 40 years, and decided to purchase this farm with his brother's help. Although they process coffee for small farms in the area, this lot is only from coffee grown on the Sanchez farm.
In the cup it's apple and hints of cinnamon with a cocoa finish up front. As it cools, blackberry, juicy apple, and pear notes emerge. Wow!

Guatemala Finca Candelaria - Lote Nueces
John has been roasting coffee all morning! Fresh out of the roaster just now: Guatemala Finca Candelaria - Lote Nueces.
Candelaria is at the base of the sweeping ascent to the peak of Volcan de Fuego, with coffee grown between 1220 and 1500 meter. This was an old farm that was revitalized by Luis Pedro Zelaya Sr through both heavy pruning of old trees and planting of completely new trees. Lote Nueces is a lot built from daily process batches, based on a flavor profile our buyer was looking for.
In the cup it's cocoa laced with orange citrus sweetness. A very pleasing and balanced coffee.

Guatemala Finca La Florencia
Just roasted and bagged a batch of Guatemala Finca La Florencia!

Guatemala Antigua - Retana Red Bourbon
NEW at caffe d'bolla -- Guatemala Antigua -Retana Red Bourbon.
Finca Retana is a very traditional farm in central Antigua situated at 1550 meters on the valley floor. They have a small portion planted in Yellow Bourbon cultivar, but this year we're offering their Red Bourbon coffee. Bourbon coffees are named after an island in the India Ocean, now called Reunion.

Fuji apple, Asian pear, apricot, and plum, with a malty sweet body and toffee as it cools. Sweet and snappy!
