From the renowned Antigua region of Guatemala, this 100% Arabica specialty coffee, rated 85 SCA points, impresses with its balance of natural sweetness, rich chocolate and caramel flavors, and velvety texture.

Grown at altitudes of 1,500–1,800 m, from Bourbon and Caturra varieties, Guatemala Antigua Pastoral is an ideal choice for those seeking a refined coffee with character that’s easy to enjoy every day.

Guatemala Antigua – The origin of an authentic taste

At the heart of Guatemala, the Antigua region is known for its coffee-growing tradition and natural conditions that favor the cultivation of high-quality Arabica beans.

Volcanic soils, high altitude, and a distinctive climate create favorable conditions for coffee cherries to mature and develop complex flavor profiles.

Guatemala Antigua Pastoral comes from this region, expressing the elegance of its origin through sweetness, balance, and well-defined flavors.

The Bourbon and Caturra varieties contribute to this coffee’s identity, providing the foundation for a harmonious, expressive flavor profile.

Chocolate, caramel, and vanilla – A flavor profile that invites another cup

The first sip reveals this coffee’s warm, comforting character. Notes of chocolate and cocoa add depth, caramel brings a pleasant sweetness, and delicate hints of vanilla complete the experience.

Its rich, velvety body and medium acidity create a balance that makes this coffee well suited to quiet mornings and breaks when you want to savor something truly good.

Washed processing – Clarity that brings the flavors forward

Guatemala Antigua Pastoral is a coffee with washed processing, a method valued for its ability to highlight the beans’ clarity and natural characteristics.

By removing the pulp and mucilage before drying, washed processing helps produce a clean flavor profile in which the flavors can be clearly distinguished.

In the cup, this translates into a pleasant balance of sweetness, acidity, and body, allowing the chocolate, caramel, and vanilla notes to express themselves harmoniously.

Cafessi artisan roasting – The difference is in every cup

Specialty coffee deserves more than an ordinary roast.

At Cafessi, we artisan-roast coffee in small batches, paying close attention to flavor development and the character of each origin.

For Guatemala Antigua Pastoral, we chose a Light–Medium roast designed to preserve the balance of natural sweetness, pleasant acidity, and chocolate and caramel notes.

We don’t aim to mask the beans’ character with an excessively dark roast; we bring it forward.

The result is freshly roasted specialty coffee with expressive flavor, a velvety body, and aromas worth discovering.

For us, artisan roasting is more than just a production step. It’s how we honor the work behind every bean and bring the best this origin has to offer to your cup.
