Atitlán

Summary

Atitlán is a washed coffee from San Juan La Laguna, Sololá, Guatemala, grown at 1200-1400 meters above sea level. Produced by local farming families organized in a cooperative near Lake Atitlán, this lot consists of Bourbon, Caturra, and Catuai varieties. The coffee is processed using the washed method, with slow sun drying on concrete patios. It offers a flavor profile of dark chocolate, macadamia nut, date, and panela, with a medium-high body and medium acidity. Roasted for espresso, it expresses its best in short preparations, balancing character and accessibility, especially with milk.
