Guatemala Santa Rosa – Single Origin Specialty Arabica

At Coffee Spirit, we believe every origin has its own story, and our Guatemala Santa Rosa coffee tells one of balance, richness, and vibrant character. Grown in the fertile volcanic valleys of Santa Rosa in south-central Guatemala, these beans flourish in the Central Highlands, where high elevations, mineral-rich volcanic soil, and a temperate climate create the perfect conditions for cultivating exceptional Arabica coffee.

The slower ripening process at altitudes of 1350 meters and above allows each bean to absorb the unique terroir of the region, developing deep complexity and a cup profile that stands proudly among the finest coffees of Central America.

The Taste Experience

Guatemala Santa Rosa offers a cup that is clean, smooth, and beautifully balanced, with a creamy body and lively citric acidity. Every sip reveals a harmony of flavours that evolves on the palate:

• Dark chocolate richness that grounds the cup.

• Stone fruit brightness adding subtle sweetness.

• Caramel undertones that linger with warmth.

It is a coffee crafted for those who seek depth and elegance in every brew.

Why Santa Rosa?

Though not as widely known as Antigua or Huehuetenango, Santa Rosa is quickly building a reputation as a specialty coffee powerhouse. Its volcanic soils, traditional farming practices, and dedicated smallholder farmers have turned this once-overlooked region into a source of unique, traceable micro-lots.

Here’s what makes Santa Rosa exceptional:

• Volcanic Soil: Dense with minerals, creating layered complexity in every bean.

• High Elevation: Promotes slow ripening and denser beans.

• Climate: Balanced wet and dry seasons, essential for consistent quality.

• Sustainable Farming: Many farmers hand-pick cherries and grow under shade, respecting biodiversity and preserving the natural landscape.
