Sebastiana is a second generation coffee grower who inherited her parcel of land from her parents. She and her husband work to maintain the farm, focusing on specialty quality. She receives help from the El Sendero Cooperative, and through it she and her family have been able to boost their income. Their farm is called Tzun Witz, which means “on the mountain” in Popti Mayan. We are receiving Sebastiana’s coffee through Primavera Green Coffee, an importer/exporter based out of Guatemala. Primavera was awarded the Sustainability Award for Business Model by the SCA in 2023.
This coffee is exceptionally sweet, with just enough acidity to keep it from seeming lackluster or boring. This year we are noticing a bit more clarity in the cup, along with a juicier acidity. We get a really enticing aroma of citrus blossoms, and flavors of cranberry, mandarin, and a hint of sweet tomato through the finish.
