GUATEMALA NUEVA MONTANA HONEY #1024

Want to be notified when it's back?

Honey processed coffees from Guatemala are a rare and special cup: 99% of all Guatemalan coffees are washed. During honey processing, a small amount of the cherry is left on the bean while it dries. It requires an expert hand and a meticulous degree of attention, but the results are stunning: the coffee's flavors become sweeter and its body becomes richer. Stamp Act found this remarkable lot through Primavera, a Guatemalan import company that works with small growers to encourage innovative coffees like this one. The farm, Finca Nueva Montana, is located in Fraijanes region of Guatemala, one of the oldest coffee-producing regions of the country. Here, coffee plants can take advantage of the soil content and high altitudes of the nearby Pacaya Volcano -- consistent, sunny weather is essential for honey processing, where even a small amount of unexpected moisture can dramatically impact flavor. The lot is Yellow Catuai, golden-colored coffee beans known for their bracing acidity and mellow, caramel-like sweetness. Finally, Stamp Act’s light, robust roasting style spins this coffee into pure gold.

Representing less than 1% of Guatemalan coffees, this honey processed coffee is a mug of pure summertime joy. After just one taste, we raced to Stamp Act to reserve a batch just for Bean Box customers. With its light, fruity notes of strawberry, lemon tea, and green apple candies, this is one cup you’ll want to sip all season long. It’s only available for a limited time, so don’t wait: reserve your own bag of Stamp Act’s fresh crop Guatemala Nueva Montana Honey today, before it disappears with the last rays of the summer sun.
