This coffee is from Santa Felisa Farm in the Acatenango Valley of Guatemala at 1500 meters altitude. It is an African Gesha variety processed using the washed method. Established in 1904, the farm is now run by fourth generation siblings under agronomist Anabella Meneses, who won 1st place in the 2017 Cup of Excellence. The coffee features jasmine florals, honeycomb, and lime candy notes with a balanced and structured profile. Light roast.
Founded in 2008 by Korean immigrants who opened their first shop on the brink of the financial crisis, Bean & Bean Coffee has evolved into a mother-daughter Q Grader duo operation led by Rachel and Jiyoon Han. Since opening the first shop on Rector & Broadway in 2008, they've grown Bean & Bean to four locations, now with a roastery in Queens, New York. Since they opened doors in New York City in 2008, Bean & Bean has been working to bridge the gender gap in coffee throughout the value chain. Currently more than half of all of our coffee is from farms that are owned and led by female producers.
