El Injerto farm in Huehuetenango grows this Caturra at high altitude, where the variety's natural brightness shines through. The honey process leaves some of the fruit mucilage on the beans during drying, building body and sweetness that carries floral aromatics and honey character into the cup, balanced by citrus acidity.

Founded by James Freeman in the early 2000s in Oakland's Temescal District, Blue Bottle began when the former clarinetist started roasting coffee in a 186-square-foot converted potting shed, gradually building a cult following for his meticulously crafted single-origin coffees. In 2017, Nestlé acquired a 68% majority stake in the company in a deal valuing Blue Bottle at over $700 million, though the brand maintains its focus on quality and craft coffee culture.
