Context

Produced by Arturo Aguirre Sr. and Jr. in Guatemala, the El Injerto Red Pacamara represents a meticulous approach to cultivation. The Pacamara varietal is widely recognized in the industry for its distinctively large bean size and complex, often savory-leaning profile. When roasted by George Howell Coffee, this specific lot highlights a nuanced interplay of butterscotch, mild anise, and orange peel.

While individual lots vary, coffees from this region often benefit from high-elevation microclimates that contribute to a dense, structured cup. To better understand how these specific descriptors fit into a broader sensory framework, enthusiasts often consult a flavor wheel to map the transition from the initial sweetness of butterscotch to the more delicate, aromatic finish of anise and citrus. This offering serves as a refined example of how careful processing and varietal selection define the character of a single-origin coffee.
