Context

Sourced from the high-elevation landscapes of Guatemala · Huehuetenango, the Guatemala Jolimex represents a collaborative effort by three small-holder producers. This lot is brought to market by Case Coffee Roasters, who have opted for a washed processing method. Generally, washed coffees are celebrated for their ability to highlight the inherent acidity and clean, crisp profile of the bean, as the fruit flesh is removed before drying to ensure a focused cup. You can learn more about how these processing methods influence the final profile in our technical guide.

In the cup, this selection presents a balanced sweetness characterized by notes of apricot, plum, and brown sugar. When evaluating these specific descriptors, it can be helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better understand how these fruit and sugar-toned nuances interact.
