This is a decaffeinated Guatemalan coffee from Coffee Bird, a family business specializing in quality sourcing and exports. The lot is comprised mainly of beans from Finca San Jeronimo, a 4th generation coffee farm in Atitlán, along with El Zapote, Gascon, Santa Irene and San Jorge. The coffee is decaffeinated using the Sugarcane process, a method prized for retaining the original coffee flavour. The result is a complex, sweet and accessible coffee.
