Finca Antonio Recinos

Huehuetenango is a department of Guatemala located in the western highlands and borders the Chiapas state of Mexico to the north. It is the country's most ethnically diverse region with a proud Mayan heritage.

This coffee is sourced from Antonio Recinos in Santo Domingo Las Flores, Huehuetenango. The Recinos family have been producing top quality coffee for generations at Finca Nueva Armenia, and Antonio is continuing this tradition all while exploring different processing methods, isolated varieties and continuous experimentation.

This specific lot of Parainema from Antonio’s personal farm underwent a 72-hour carbonic maceration. It involves placing harvested coffee cherries in airtight barrels before pumping in CO2 to create a CO2-rich environment, which allows the cherries to break down different levels of pectins, often producing bright and winey coffees with strong notes of red fruits.

The resulting cup reminds us of strawberry, ripe fruits and cocoa.

Delicious and ripe strawberry right away. Has a nice, round brightness that finishes off with cocoa.
