Why Choose Colipse Guatemalan Coffee Beans?

At Colipse, we offer several of reasons to choose our Guatemalan coffee beans.

  • Single-origin coffee: From the Huehuetenango region, one of Guatemala’s top coffee areas.
  • Specialty-grade: Scoring 85+ on the Specialty Coffee Association scale for exceptional quality.
  • Roast level: City roast, medium roast with balanced brightness and smoothness, highlighting lemon, nougat, and brown sugar.
  • High-altitude growth: SHB EP (Strictly Hard Bean, European Process), grown at 1,500-2,000 meters above sea level, ensuring dense beans and complex flavor.
  • Processing method: Coffee beans are first washed to remove the outer layers and the sticky mucilage under the skin, then laid out to dry in the sun. This process reduces the risk of mold and fungi, ensuring mold-free beans with a clean, bright flavor.
  • Freshness: Roasted to order, your coffee arrives at its peak freshness with rich aromas and vibrant flavor. Freshly roasted beans release flavorful oils, giving you a more complex, lively taste than stale coffee.
  • Compatibility: Perfect for super-automatic, semi-automatic espresso machines, and bean-to-cup machines. The beans are non-oily, making them easy to grind while preserving their rich flavor.
  • Free shipping: Free shipping on all U.S. orders.
