Context

The Guatemala Yellow Bourbon Vandaluz, sourced from producer Josué Morales, represents a distinct expression of the Yellow Bourbon varietal. Cultivated within the diverse landscapes of Guatemala, this lot highlights the meticulous work of producers dedicated to specific cultivar management. Yellow Bourbon is often noted for its unique maturation process compared to its red counterparts, frequently resulting in a nuanced sweetness and balanced acidity that coffee professionals look for when navigating the flavor wheel.

Offered by Intelligentsia Coffee, this selection invites drinkers to explore the intersection of regional terroir and varietal character. While general profiles for this region often lean toward chocolatey or nutty foundations, the specific genetic profile of Yellow Bourbon can introduce brighter, more vibrant characteristics to the cup.
