Santa Felisa sits at 1,550 m in Guatemala’s Acatenango Valley. The farm was established in 1904 and is run today by the fourth generation of the family, with agronomist and Q Grader Anabella Meneses leading the work. Since 2010 she has been testing how fermentation and drying shape the cup, work that earned first place in the 2017 Cup of Excellence.
This lot is Laurina, the Bourbon mutation also called Bourbon Pointu for its narrow, pointed beans. It is a naturally low caff variety, with no decaf process involved.
