Guatemala Kape'tenango SL-28 7oz

Mauricio Rosales planted SL-28 seeds on his La Maravilla farm in Huehuetenango's Kape'tenango parcel to test how this Kenyan varietal would express the region's terroir. Washed and dried on raised beds at 1,600–1,800 meters elevation, this lot bridges two origins in a single cup. Expect vibrant acidity with lime and cherry notes balanced by toffee sweetness—a testament to both the variety's pedigree and the farm's mountainous character. Rosales's decades-long direct trade relationship and multiple Cup of Excellence wins underscore La Maravilla's commitment to quality innovation.
