An incredible washed coffee produced by Yonny Martinez in Huehuetengo, Guatemala from a small (3.5 Hectare) farm. Notes of cacao, dates, and blackberry.

  • Story

    Yonny Martinez is a first generation coffee producer with an inspiring story. He made the decision to migrate to find work at the young age of 14, and worked for 17 years with the idea of buying land to start a coffee farm. Now he runs a few small parcels of land (3.5 Hectares), and he’s faced challenges along the way, but he’s proud to grow coffee to support his family, a wife and 4 kids.

  • Tasting Notes

    FLAVOR: Blackberry, Cacao, Dates

    BODY: Medium Bodied

    ROAST LEVEL: Medium

  • Coffee Background

    All of Yonny’s parcels’ coffee are processed in his wet mill. He himself is in charge of the processing of these lots. The coffee is depulped soon after picking and is fermented dry in a cement tank. Fermentation lasts 18-24 hours depending on the weather. After being washed, the coffee is then moved to a cement patio where it remains in the sun for about 5 day, spending roughly six hours in the sun per day. This parcela is unique because there’s a single palm tree on this farm, which is very unusual in this area of Guatemala - that is how La Palma got its name!
