Details

Notes of dried apricots, plums, and nectarines unfold gracefully, creating a smooth, fruity, sun-kissed profile that keeps inviting you back for more…

In the Motagua Valley, high in the Guatemalan mountains, lies the remarkable El Gigante Estate, named after the mountain on whose slopes it rests. Established in 1994, this coffee estate boasts a unique microclimate suited perfectly for slow, flavour-dense maturation. Led by Osvaldo Suchini, El Gigante is celebrated for its dedication to quality, innovation, and community. It’s where traditional know-how comes together with modern processing techniques to create coffees of a truly remarkable character. This particular lot is an excellent example: it’s been co-fermented with “mosto”— a fermented juice derived from earlier batches of coffee—producing a particularly intense aroma, and enhancing the fruity flavour of the beans even further.
