Fresh Artisan Roasted Guatemalan Specialty Coffee (Whole Bean, 1lb)

Description

Huehuetenango (way-way-ten-nang-oh) is in the northeast highlands of Guatemala. With the natural shade from the highland jungles, this area provides the perfect growing environment for some of the most fragrant and aromatic coffees in the world. This is a bright, full-bodied rich coffee that is fruity with flavors cherry, lemon, cinnamon and chocolate.These beans have been washed with water. The objective of washing is to eliminate the chances of off-tastes from overripe or fermented coffee cherries which would destruct the flavor of the bean. The goal is a cleaner cup.Fair Trade Certified coffee guarantees livable wages for farmers and their families, improving their opportunities for better healthcare, housing and education. By choosing Fair Trade Certified coffees you are directly contributing to the livelihood of coffee-growing communities.One of our suppliers and CODECH (Coordinator of Organizations for the Development of Concepcion Huista) came together in support of the women of Huehuetenango to provide a fair trade route for their coffee crops, healthcare, education, and economic support. Half of proceeds will go directly to the women who contributed to this lot and the remaining half towards a Women's Health workshop.You may personalize a gift message to be included.
