INTELLI - 12oz Guatemala Milder Velásquez
$25.00
Description
In 2020, we expanded upon the concept of our Extraordinary Coffee Workshop, an event that brings our global Direct Trade network, and convened a coffee quality event for smallholder cooperatives in Guatemala that we called Intelligentsia ECWx. We were impressed with the three women from La Libertad, Huehuetenango who represented the Coopesqui cooperative, and even more impressed with the coffee they offered us. We sourced one small lot from them that same year and never looked back. This year marks the fifth harvest that we have worked with Coopesqui, and the coffee just keeps getting better.
This exceptional lot was grown by cooperative member Milder Velásquez, whose farm is situated in Huehuetenango within the expansive Cuchumatanes mountain range. It is appearing on our single-origin menu for the first time.
