Primavera Family, Guatemala (Filter)

Sweet and smooth

The Coffee

This filter roast of Primavera Family is super smooth and sweet like a high quality milk chocolate. There is a very delicate pear acidity which is all wrapped up in a rich and creamy almond body.

Its a classic easy drinking Guatemalan, but definitely not boring. It's got loads going on for being a more accessible coffee. Plenty of depth, sweetness and delicate acidity that you can experiment with when brewing.

We recommend using any pour over method to really bring out the best, but this will still taste fantastic through any filter brewer such as a Moccamaster.

The Producers

Sourced from our green coffee supplier Primavera, the Primavera Family lot was created from 10-15 producers in the Huehuetenango region. The quality of these lots were better suited to a balanced regional blend than to offer as single microlots, and sometimes the lots themselves are too small to stand alone as microlots.

The coffee was purchased to offer a wider range of quality, and producers can sell more of their coffee for a better price, enabling them to invest in their farms and wet mills.

Primavera are constantly working with their producers to help them improve the quality and productivity of their farms. Hoping that in the future they might be able to sell more of these lots as single farm coffees.

For this particular lot, they purchased and blended coffees of 84 and 85 points to create a regional blend with the classic, balanced Huehue profile.

This regional lot is unique, and each lot of Primavera Family blend has full transparency and is traceable to the farm level.

Roasting Schedule

Your coffee will be roasted within 1-16 days of purchase, with a shelf life of 6 weeks (optimum serving point at 12-36 days old). We recommend letting this coffee rest for at least 12 days before using, in order to release excess gas which can impact the flavour of your cup.

If you would like your coffee fresh, please leave a note with your order and we will do our best to accommodate.
