Guatemalan Antigua Bella Carmona Coffee

One who’s been to Bella Vista, a medium sized coffee plantation, knows the zest and the vigour that goes into making the Guatemala Antigua Bella Carmona beans so succinctly special.

Harvested from the Caturra and Bourbon varieties of the Arabica coffee trees, the stellar Guatemalan Antigua coffee unleashes a medium-bodied, bright and tangy taste.
