Life presents moments where boldness is required, akin to Crispus Attucks breaking chains and leading revolutions in Boston. Our medium-roasted Guatemalan boasts a bold taste of earthy cocoa with subtle floral notes. Selectively handpicked coffee cherries undergo pulping on the farms with minor fermentation, followed by natural washing and filtering. Laid to sun dry on raised beds lined with parchment paper, these SHB arabica coffee beans mature slowly at high altitudes, resulting in a more flavorful bean.
