About El Alma
This exceptional single-origin Guatemalan coffee features classic milk chocolate and caramel notes with a round, sweet profile and milky-creamy body, balanced by pleasantly sweet citrus acidity. Sourced from Guatemala's highest altitude regions and crafted from 100% specialty-grade Arabica beans, each batch is handpicked, sorted, and small-batch roasted to preserve the complex flavor characteristics. This three-generation family operation partners with cooperatives across Guatemala's highlands, sourcing bright, fruity coffees scoring 84.5+ while supporting sustainable practices where every quality level finds its purpose, and $0.05 from every pound sold funds Habitat for Humanity Guatemala's Smokeless Stove Program.
