Cultivated at high altitudes in Huehuetenango, this washed heirloom reflects the expertise of the Aguirre family. The rich terroir and cool microclimate promote slow maturation, resulting in exceptional aromatic complexity.

Context

This washed Ethiopian lot from the Aguirre family showcases the clarity typical of washed coffees, where careful water processing allows the bean's inherent character to shine. Heirloom varietals grown in Ethiopia's diverse microclimates often express nuanced flavor complexity, and this coffee's profile—balancing stone fruit notes like peach and plum with subtle chocolate and tea-like structure—reflects that potential. Dayglow has developed a roast that emphasizes these layered qualities, making this a thoughtful choice for those seeking depth beyond single-note brightness.
