El Durazno - Bourbon - White Honey Guatemalan Coffee
Tasting notes: bright acidity, juicy and creamy body, notes of caramel, citrus and milk chocolate
The Ventura family have been growing coffee for over five generations. The coffee farming tradition began when their grandfather started growing coffee in 1894, at a farm called Finca Rabanales.
Over a hundred years later, the family purchased Finca El Durazno in 2012. Rafael & Maria Elena are two of the five proprietors of the farm, and are active in its management. In 2012, Finca El Durazno did not have a single coffee plant - in fact the land was mainly used for forestry. Although the Ventura family have been coffee farming for over 120 years, the farm is very young as coffee was planted during the 2013-2014 harvest.

FAQ
Why do you only have Guatemalan coffees? Will you have any other origins in the future?
For now we only offer single-origin Guatemalan varietals because of the long lasting relationships we have built with farmers in Guatemala. Alex, our founder, previously worked alongside her mum and sis sourcing some of Guatemala’s finest coffee beans with amazing producers across the country. Today we still get to collab with the family through Coffee Bird and deliver you the best of Guatemala, right to your door.
Where does the coffee come from?
We work directly with farmers through Coffee Bird so there’s no middle man, no funny business, no shady contracts. The wellbeing of these farmers is our main priority, high-quality coffee follows.
I've heard a lot of talk about water, does this really make a difference?
Brewing with water means your morning cup is 98% water. We wouldn’t want the gap to fall from perfectly roasted beans, to a not-so-great cup of coffee. We recommend using filtered water instead of straight from the tap to minimise harshness in your cup.
How should I store my coffee?
Keep whole beans sealed in its bag or in an airtight container and grind only the amount you’ll be using right before you brew.
