SOLO

About This Coffee

SOLO is a seasonal single-origin washed coffee from Huehuetenango, Guatemala. Produced by smallholder farmers in the highlands of western Guatemala through the Regional Select programme, this coffee is grown on steep, fertile slopes. It offers molasses sweetness, gentle berry acidity, and a syrupy body with a great finish. The lot was crafted to capture the essence of Huehuetenango's flavor profile.
