Questions
There is a lot of technical reasons that make the coffee from Guatemala one of the best in the world: different altitudes, more than 300 microclimates, coffee planted under shade.....but for me, the real reason Guatemalan coffee IS better is the people and the coffee culture that we have in Guatemala.
Ohh so goood! We use one roast, because its just right. Its a medium roast. We don't Roast it too much and that's very important. Most places default to a dark roast, but in actuality the medium gives you the purest, unaltered coffee taste if used with a good manual technique. [Don't Worry. We Do!] A light blend actually has the highest caffeine too. We're the perfect middle ground. You've got to try it!

We roast all our coffee in-house, using a really fancy Bellwether roaster. People often mistake it for a snack machine, but its really cool and let's us roast in the Bentonville Library with a machine about that size! We know that most store-ought coffee doesn't come fresh and that's not ok. We intentionally roast our coffee beans fresh every single week and will make sure that you always have the best possible tasting coffee.
Did you know that a lot of coffee on the shelf at the store can get moldy? It's because they roast in massive batches to save money, but it often sits in a warehouse for months before it even gets to the shelves. K-cup tend to have this problem too, because people don't usually rush to drink them or they buy them in bulk to make them last. Our K-cups will be fresh, but don't let them sit too long you hear?

From the moment the beans are roasted - the timer starts ticking. After a bout 2 weeks, you can taste the freshness it dissipating. It's not bad after two weeks, but it's losing it's flavor. After a month...ehh that's when it's lost its punch. Coffee lovers like us would toss it at that point, but after a few months you start risking moldy coffee. Don't play that game, just come get a fresh bag from us. Drink your coffee and no problems! :D
In the 1700's there was a coffee the lower class people revolted again the rich, because they too wanted coffee. The elite hogged it all to themselves! Sebatian Bach the famous composer (although an elite himself at the time) agreed with the people and wrote the Coffee Kontata. Its a satiric opera about that revolt. We love music and how it bring people together. That's the goal of our coffee so we named the store after that piece.
