3 key notes: [Raspberry Jam, White Chocolate, Rose]

Our second season buying coffee from Fredy Orantes, and genuinely these might be some of our favourite coffees to come out of Guatemala - it's an origin we never really chase hype farms from, but Finca Buena Vista is one of the gems in the Primavera lineup for sure. Combining a bio-diversity + regenerative agriculture first approach with excellent, excellent quality, Fredy is absolutely smashing it.

While last year presented some heavier, cacao lead funk notes - this year's Pacamara lot from Fredy is lighter and cleaner, though unmistakably a process-lead cup. And it's a true Pacamara - BIGBOY beans, a very fun technical challenge for us as roasters

We're tasting:
Rose turkish delight and fresh picked overripe raspberry aromatics, in the cup it's incredibly sweet - reminding us of white chocolate milkshake, with raspberry jam acidity and pink marshmallow + dried mango flavours. As it cools, becoming more tropical (reminding us of mixed tropical fruit juice) and process lead, with some hints of a boozier, pulpier process note - like kriek lambic

  • Lightest Roaster Influence

    We're inspired by Rob Hoos' note on Pacamara - don't go TOO soft and slow on it. But equally - we're notoriously quite a fast roaster; so it's a bit of a split difference. Slower roasting/not so aggressive heat application to ensure we don't scorch the outside, but equally ensuring a good heat delta. Low end temp short dev to ensure funk-minning
