INTRO
A small family farm in Concepción Huista with its own ranch house and wet mill. The traditional processing gives the classic Guatemalan cup. In the cup: green apple, marshmallow, and peanut butter cup.
THE PRODUCER
In the town of Concepción Huista in Huehuetenango, Victoriana's farmland sits at 1,610 masl with just under a hectare of land. Despite its size, the farm has its own ranch house and wet mill, where Victoriana and her family stay during the harvest. At this "Ranchito," closer to the coffee plants, freshly picked cherry reaches the wet mill very quickly and is processed immediately while the coffee is at its freshest.
THE PROCESS
The Washed process for this lot involves:
🍒 Picking — freshly picked cherry taken quickly to the wet mill
🌱 Depulping — cherries depulped
🌙 Overnight fermentation — left to ferment overnight to remove leftover mucilage
☀️ Sun-drying — turned out onto tarps for 3–4 days, turned constantly
The quick processing at the farm's own wet mill is the defining feature. This traditional method gives the classic Guatemalan cup profile.
THE CUP
A tangy, sweet green apple note up top, followed by a creamy marshmallow body and a subtle vanilla undertone. As the coffee cools fully, deeper chocolate and peanut notes come forward for a decadent peanut butter cup character.
