About Bella Carmona
Bella Carmona is sourced from Hacienda Carmona, located in the Sacatepéquez department of Antigua, Guatemala, at elevations ranging from 1,500 to 1,650 metres above sea level. The region’s unique microclimate and volcanic soil create ideal conditions for growing high-quality coffee. The farm is managed by Luis Pedro Zelaya Zamora, who also oversees the Bella Vista mill, where traditional methods and innovative processing techniques ensure the highest quality.
Expert Management by Luis Pedro Zelaya Zamora
Luis Pedro’s commitment to excellence is evident through:
-
Meticulous Farming Practices: Focused on plant nutrition, regular pruning, and effective pest management to maintain healthy coffee plants.
-
Precise Honey Processing: After harvesting, the coffee cherries are pulped, but instead of fully washing off the mucilage, a portion is left intact to enhance sweetness and body. The beans are then carefully dried on raised beds, allowing the natural sugars to develop rich, complex flavours.
Flavour Profile and Quality Assurance
Bella Carmona consists of Bourbon and Caturra varieties, processed using the honey method to preserve natural sweetness and enhance body. This coffee offers a silky, syrupy mouthfeel with balanced acidity, featuring tasting notes of apricot, agave, and caramel. The honey process accentuates the coffee’s fruit-forward profile while maintaining clarity and depth of flavour.
