Finca La Bolsa has been run by the Vides family since 1958. Just 6km from the Interamerican Highway it is still so remote that the only access was on horse-back until recently.
This coffee is a delicious example of a Huehuetenango coffee. All toffee and chocolate flavors with some tasty fruit to set it all off. We've been shipping a lot of East African coffees for the last few weeks so it's nice to switch it up every so often, enjoy!

A good change of pace with a nice mellow taste of toffee. Tried a finer grind on day 3 and for some reason the coffee tasted a bit more tasty.

Light and refreshing
My first cup of Moustache Coffee! Finca bolsa has been a distinctive change of pace for me. I wanted to try something different from the darker roasts, which I have drunk for years. The bright and fruity taste of my first cup was light and refreshing, rather like a breezy Fall afternoon. I suspect I am a little jaded by years of dark roasts, here, as I felt that the deeper flavors were understated. I 'got' cherry and plum notes, but struggled a little to find anything like toffee or chocolate. Again, this is probably me. I shall experiment with grind settings to see what can be found.
