La Esperanza

Voor onze nieuwste koffie uit Guatemala werken we samen met twee partners die elkaar perfect aanvullen: boer Francisco Morales van La Esperanza en importeur Primavera. De constante focus van Francisco om de allerbeste kwaliteit te leveren, geeft Primavera de perfecte basis. Smaak, kwaliteit en duurzaamheid gaan hier hand in hand; het vakmanschap op het land ondersteunt Primavera’s inzet voor eerlijke inkomens en investeringen in de community. Deze gewassen koffie smaakt naar mango, citroenschil en pure chocolade.

Produced by Francisco Morales in Guatemala, La Esperanza represents a classic expression of the region’s commitment to quality. This lot undergoes a washed process, a method typically employed to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean by removing the fruit pulp before drying. When roasted by Giraffe Coffee, this specific preparation yields a profile defined by mango, citrus peel, and pure chocolate.

While every harvest varies, washed coffees are generally celebrated for their clean, vibrant profiles that allow the terroir to shine through. To better understand how these specific descriptors align with broader industry standards, you can consult the flavor wheel. By focusing on the intersection of traditional processing and precise roasting, La Esperanza offers a balanced cup that showcases the distinct character of Morales’s work, providing a refined experience for those who appreciate the nuanced interplay between fruit-forward brightness and deep, cocoa-toned sweetness.
