Mayan Honey Geisha Guatemala, 1 LB

Origin and Varieties
Mayan Honey Geisha is grown in the high-altitude regions of Guatemala, at an elevation of 4,000 feet, where the cool temperatures and rich volcanic soil provide the ideal environment for cultivating exceptional coffee. This variety, Geisha, is one of the most coveted and rare coffee beans in the world. The coffee is sourced from the Nueva Granada Estate, a farm known not only for its top-tier coffee but also for its commitment to supporting the local community and sustainable farming practices. The estate’s meticulous care and dedication to quality are reflected in every cup of Mayan Honey Geisha.

Flavor Profile and Notes
Mayan Honey Geisha features a complex flavor profile, with deep, wine-like characteristics reminiscent of stewed fruit or prunes. The honey washed process enhances the coffee’s natural sweetness, bringing forward rich chocolate and nutty undertones, balanced by delicate floral notes. The coffee also presents a heavy body, making it a full-bodied and smooth experience. The unique honey washed method gives it a sweet, aromatic profile and naturally low caffeine content, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a sophisticated cup with layers of flavor and depth.

Processing Methods
The beans used for Mayan Honey Geisha undergo the honey washed process, which is a distinctive method where the coffee is depulped but left to dry with its mucilage (the sticky fruit layer beneath the skin) intact. This technique intensifies the sweetness and complexity of the coffee, allowing the rich flavors to develop fully. The beans are dried in a specialized facility designed to preserve the unique characteristics of the Laurina coffee variety, which is rare and requires exceptional care during cultivation. The honey washed process also ensures that the coffee exhibits the black honey qualities, giving it a unique balance of wine-like and chocolatey notes, complemented by a smooth, aromatic sweetness.

Brewing Methods
To truly appreciate the nuanced flavors of Mayan Honey Geisha, it is best brewed using methods that highlight its complexity and sweetness. A pour-over or Chemex brewing method will allow the floral notes and wine-like characteristics to shine, producing a clean, aromatic cup. For a more concentrated experience, brewing as an espresso will intensify its chocolate and nutty undertones, offering a rich and bold shot. French press brewing will bring out the heavy body and smooth texture, making it an indulgent choice for those who enjoy a fuller cup. Finally, for those who prefer a refreshing twist, cold brew will bring out the naturally sweet and floral notes, providing a mellow, smooth experience.

Mayan Honey Geisha is an exceptional coffee that offers a rare and sweet experience, with layers of complex flavors that are the result of both the unique honey washed process and the care put into cultivating the beans. This coffee is perfect for those who seek a sophisticated, full-bodied cup with a distinctive, sweet finish.
