Guatemala Blue Ayarza (Sep-Oct 2022)

AVAILABLE ONLINE AND IN STORE

Guatemala has a rich history in coffee, and have been growing and exporting coffee since the 1800s. Some of the main coffee producing regions in Guatemala are San Marcos, Acatenango, Atitlán, Huehuetenango, and the well-known Antigua region.

This month, we are featuring coffee from the Santa Rosa department of Guatemala, specifically around Laguna de Ayarza (Lake Ayarza). This lake was formed around 20,000 years ago by a large volcanic eruption. Located around 1,400 meters above sea level and surrounded by rich volcanic soil, the coffee grown around this region has all the factors it needs to develop rich, wonderful flavours.

In this washed lot, we taste notes of green grapes, milk chocolate, and molasses in a medium-heavy body cup of coffee with a nice crisp finish.

As our #dYScover beans are roasted specially, and separately from the rest of our offerings, we only have limited quantities per month! If you have ever thought or wondered about specialty coffee from Guatemala, do make sure you give this a try soon!

There are so many different types of coffee grown in various regions of the world, with each region tasting very distinct from one another. 

#dYScover, by Yong Seng Coffee, is our attempt at letting you experience high quality/specialty coffee from the various coffee-producing regions of the world. Read more about specialty coffee here!

Join us on this journey as we bring in coffee from different regions every month, as we explore the world of coffee together.
