Bella Carmona Honey

Take all that you love about our Bella Carmona Guatemala and jazz it up! Introducing our Bella Carmona Guatemala Honey Process. This is a rare honey process microlot from the Bella Vista team in the Antigua Valley of Guatemala. It’s as if you took our Bella Carmona Guatemala (our quintessential easy sipper) and added a little flair. We tasted apricot preserves, candied strawberry, peach cobbler, clover honey, and white floras. It’s buttery, crisp, and just plain fun to drink.

Coffee producer Luis Pedro Zelaya has four generations of Guatemalan coffee culture pulsing through his veins and a reputation for producing world-class coffees. At his farm Hacienda Carmona, Zelaya is meticulous about plant nutrition, pruning, and pest management. At Bella Vista (the location of the wet and dry-mills), Zelaya and his team meticulously process fully traceable lots by harvest date, location, variety, and altitude. Coffee is depulped, fermented, and washed in a traditional process that has been perfected over the last 100 years. The coffee is then gradually dried in a controlled environment designed to protect cup quality. Raised drying beds and sensor-controlled airflow permit a more uniform drying process. The same focus on sorting and quality control is executed through to the final export stage.
