Product Description

Full City - This is a medium roast that is perfectly balanced. While the fragrance is floral and fruited it seems to shift to a mildly chocolate aromatic base with sugar cane sweetness. Cup flavors are very mild and the aftertaste is rather lingering, the appeal of this cup is its fine aromatics, and delicate, clean personality. The body is light but has a creamy texture.

Guatemalan coffees are revered as some of the most flavorful and nuanced coffees in the world. Strictly Hard Bean European Processed; "SHB" refers to coffee grown at altitudes higher than about 4,500 feet above sea level. Beans grown at high altitudes mature more slowly and grow to be harder and denser than beans grown at lower elevations. The inherent consistency and taste attributes of high grown beans makes them more desirable, and generally more expensive, than coffees grown at lower elevations.

These SHB beans have been decaffeinated using the Swiss Water® Process which is a 100% chemical free coffee decaffeination process. Most decaffeination processes use chemical solvents, such as methylene chloride (MC). The Swiss Water® Process uses only water to remove caffeine, producing a water processed decaf coffee.
