Guatemala — Finca Gascón

This Catuai lot is processed as a natural, meaning the cherries are dried whole, with the fruit left intact around the seed. After harvest, the cherries are sorted, weighed and transported to the wet mill, before undergoing a 96-hour fermentation in GrainPro bags.

Felipe has refined this approach over the years, drawing from a broad set of processing protocols to produce coffees with structure and sweetness.

For this coffee, the result is a cup with vivid red fruit, subtle boozy notes and a sweet, rounded finish.

Ava ★★★★★

Each sip of this Catuai lot is so smooth and fruity, you can tell the cherries were dried whole just right. I brewed it as a pour-over and the sweetness carried through from first taste to the last drop. Definitely ordering another bag.

Charlotte ★★★★★

The cherries being dried whole really comes through in the cup—it's got this deep, fruity sweetness that feels almost jammy. I brewed it in my pour-over and the body was surprisingly smooth, no harsh edges at all. Definitely my favorite bag this month.

Michael F. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about a natural-processed Catuai at first, but drying the whole cherries really paid off — the cup is incredibly clean with a syrupy sweetness that lingers. This one’s a keeper for slow weekend pour-overs.
