This year, our Turning Leaves is a beautiful blend of beans from Guatemala and Mexico. We were thrilled when we cupped these high scoring lots. The Guatemala adds its famous caramel and dark chocolate kick, while the Mexico softens with an unmatched nutty sweetness. With balanced, classic notes of cocoa, caramel, dried fruit and maple syrup, we found a perfect fit for this year’s Turning Leaves!
