Patzibir - Wholesale

High above the southern shore of stunning and mystical Lake Atitlan, just beyond the town of San Lucas Toliman, sits Finca Patzibir (a Kaqchikel word meaning “where the tree lives”). This beautiful farm resides in a microclimate replete with cloud cover and limited direct sunlight. These conditions give way to a soft, chocolatey, sweet and slightly nutty cup profile often found in farms from around “the lake.”

Origin: San Lucas Toliman, Guatemala Processing: Washed Varietal: Catuai Elevation: 1500-1700 MASL Tasting Notes: Caramel, Dried Fruit, Chocolate

Importing Partner: Los Volcanes Coffee/Falcon Coffees

Sourced from the San Lucas Toliman region of Guatemala, this Patzibir lot is produced by Finca Patzibir and roasted by Coffea Roasterie. Grown at an elevation of 1500-1700 masl, this Catuai varietal undergoes a washed process, a method often utilized to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean. While washed coffees are frequently celebrated for their clean, bright profiles, this specific selection leans into a comforting, dessert-like spectrum, featuring notes of caramel, dried fruit, and chocolate.

When evaluating such profiles, enthusiasts often consult the flavor wheel to better identify the nuances between sugar-browning notes like caramel and the deeper, cocoa-toned characteristics found in high-quality Central American harvests. This offering serves as a classic example of the balanced, approachable cup profile that the region is known for, providing a reliable and structured experience for those who appreciate traditional processing techniques.
