Description
Coffee Flavour : Caramel, chocolate, green apple
El Bosque sits on a hillside that runs parallel to the main road to Guatemala City not far from the beautiful Lake Amatitlán and only a few miles from the town of Amatitlán. Due to its proximity to the capital, it faces threats from ever-expanding urban development. However, during the time we have been working with El Bosque, prices and returns for the farm have made it a much higher concern for the owners, and they are very motivated. The farm employs 5 workers year round (who live locally) and an additional 20 or so for the harvest. The wetmill for processing the coffee cherries was added later and is now on a piece of land near the main road. Coffee is taken down my road to be depulped, washed and dried before moving it to the warehouse for storage. Fun fact - the team at El Bosque have also branched out into cultivating plants other than coffee for local consumption including avocados, roses and lemons - we bet they'd make some of the best avo toast around! Smooth caramel with a little shoulder of chocolate and an edge of green apple makes this a perfect all day, crowd pleasing coffee.
