Roaster notes: "What a joy to roast this coffee, with lovely complexity and gentle white grape and raspberry acidity and a sweet sticky finish.  This coffee is perfect for pour overs, cafetiere and your AeroPress".

This wonderful coffee lot comes from Huehuetenango in Guatemala—high altitude, limestone soils, and ideal conditions for producing really elegant coffees.

La Esperanza (which literally means “The Hope”) farm has been in the Morales family for over 40 years. Built from the ground up through hard work and persistence, it’s now a farm that supports not just one family, but a whole community around it.

At the centre of it all is Francisco Morales, a producer who’s still learning, still experimenting, still pushing for better. That mindset has paid off—his coffees have picked up awards in regional competitions, and it’s easy to see why.

Processing is now led by his son Desvin, keeping things tight and consistent from harvest through to drying.

It’s also one we love for the story behind it: generations working together, constantly improving, and building something that lasts.

This coffee has a simple process with ripe coffee cherries being picked, depulped the same day, fermented for around around 24 hours before being washed clean and dried on sun patios. 

In the cup:

Balanced, sweet, a touch of complexity and structured.
