Guatemala - Relámpago

Finca Relampago is the newest undertaking of Los Volcanes Coffee, our longtime suppliers in Antigua Guatemala. Located on the middle slopes of the Agua Volcano, the farm is intended to be a dedicated space for research and experimentation.

This is a lovely, easy-drinking coffee from some of the best producers in the game. We're reminded of milk chocolate, red apple, and ginger snap along with more subtle notes of stone fruit, dried orange, caramel, and chai spice - an excellent choice in either filter or espresso preparations.

Sourced from Finca Relampago, this Guatemala - Relámpago offering highlights the distinct character of the Antigua region. Known for its volcanic soil and high-altitude valleys, this area is frequently celebrated for producing balanced, structured cups that often feature a crisp acidity and a clean, sweet finish. When exploring the profile of this coffee, you may find it helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better identify the interplay between its savory spice notes and bright fruit characteristics.

Roasted by Partners Coffee, this selection presents a complex sensory experience. While coffees from this region are often recognized for their classic, approachable profiles, this specific lot showcases a diverse range of flavors, spanning from the comfort of milk chocolate and caramel to the sharper, aromatic qualities of ginger snap and chai spice. It serves as a compelling example of the nuanced output currently emerging from the producers at Finca Relampago.
