Description
Outside the historic Guatemalan city of Antigua, the old-growth plants of La Folie flourish under the shade of silky oaks.
Grown at an elevation of 1570 meters above sea level, the Penny sisters entrust La Folie to the management of Luis Pedro Zelaya, a veritable superstar of Guatemalan specialty lots. Luis Pedro processes this coffee at his nearby mill, the famed Finca Bella Vista.
Once harvested, the coffee is taken to the nearby mill in small batches, where the coffee is de-pulped, mechanically washed, and dried on a newly built system of raised beds. This particular lot is from the harvests of the Bourbón section of the farm, showcasing the incredible sweetness and balance that our favorite Antiguan coffees have to offer.
In the cup, this lot opens with pleasant cocoa and nut aromatics. Cherry-lime acidity pairs nicely with a gentle stonefruit sweetness to create a coffee that is smooth and supremely drinkable.
