Guatemala SHB EP coffee is sourced from farms located more than 4,500 feet (1,372 meters) above sea level. Coffee cultivated at these altitudes matures slowly and grows to be harder and denser than beans grown at lower elevations, creating the strictly hard bean (SHB) with inherent consistency and rich taste attributes. The coffee is prepared for export using a standard called European Preparation (EP), meaning the coffee is hand sorted until there are no more than 8 defects per 300 grams of green coffee.

I have dabbled in home roasting for the past couple years, and I recently purchased a small commercial roaster.
I roast for friends, family and neighbors. I also provide some local non-profits with a custom roast coffee to sell
for fund raisers. I bring in 500 pounds of beans at a time in order to get a decent price break. Because I purchase
more than I will roast, and because I am not looking to make a huge profit, I am offering my fresh specialty grade
beans for prices much lower than beans found elsewhere online. You WILL NOT be disappointed with the superior
quality and flavor these beans. Specialty grade is the highest grade of beans.

I bring in fresh beans from the most current crops every 30-60 days, so when you purchase from me, you will never
purchase old beans that I have been sitting on for several months.
