Belleville Brûlerie

Context

Hunapu comes from Antigua, Guatemala's most celebrated coffee region, roasted by Belleville Brûlerie. This washed coffee blends two classic varietals—Bourbon and Caturra—both prized for their balance and sweetness. The washed process typically emphasizes clarity and brightness, allowing the varietal character to shine through cleanly. Belleville identifies apple, caramel, and toffee in the cup, suggesting a coffee that bridges crisp fruit with deeper, candy-like sweetness. Antigua's volcanic soil and elevation create ideal conditions for complex flavor development, and this combination of terroir, varietal selection, and processing yields a well-rounded profile suited to those seeking both nuance and approachable sweetness.
