Peña Blanca is a small village in the Sierra de los Cuchumatanes mountain range in western Guatemala. This lot is made up of coffee from Aurelio Villatoro, his father Rosalio, and some of their neighbors. It was processed at Aurelio's mill, Punta del Cerro, near the town of Injerto.
duck-rabbit bought this coffee through a direct trade effort called ""Proyecto Xinabajul"" that works with small producers in the Huehuetenango region, paying premium prices, and highlighting unique, phenomenal coffees whose quality potential has been unrealized. We tasted green apple, toffee, white florals, and nutmeg, with a crisp acidity, a tea-like body, and milk chocolate undertones.

Every coffee we share has been tasted and recommended by our expert Tasting Panel who have years of experience in specialty coffee. We cast a wide net, trying hundreds of coffees, keeping an open mind to new regions, processes, and roasters, and going through many rounds of cupping. If there was an easier way of choosing each coffee, we wouldn't want to do it.
