Hunapu is the native Mayan name for the Agua Volcano that looms over the Antigua highlands. Luis Pedro Zelaya Zemora purchases only 100% bourbon from small farmers who grow on 1-5 acre parcels clinging to the side of this volcano. Zelaya's mill, Bella Vista, processes only the ripest red bourbon cherries. Lots are created through combining top quality day-lots from multiple producers . This method of combing lots creates some very complex profiles. 

Purchasing Hunapu supports smaller farmers that otherwise don't produce enough coffee to find customers to sell to directly. It is delicious, with a focused dark chocolate sweetness, sweet fruit punch undertones and a honeycomb finish. Please enjoy this fresh harvest coffee, we'll be drinking this all summer

Guatemala Hunapu is a washed coffee produced by small shareholder farmers in the Antigua region. This specific lot features the Red Bourbon varietal, which is widely recognized for its balanced sweetness and complex profile. By utilizing the washed process, the producers emphasize the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean, allowing the distinct characteristics of the Antigua terroir to shine through. Roasted by Kuma Coffee, this selection highlights a profile defined by dark chocolate, fruit punch, and honeycomb. While washed coffees are often celebrated for their clean, bright finish, the specific interplay of these notes can be further explored using a flavor wheel to better understand the nuances of the cup. This coffee serves as a classic representation of the high-quality output typical of the region’s dedicated smallholder farmers, showcasing the depth achievable through careful cultivation and precise processing techniques.
