{"product_id":"guatemala-bella-carmona","title":"Guatemala Bella Carmona","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"51\" data-end=\"659\"\u003eGuatemala Antigua Bella Carmona is sourced from the legendary Antigua Valley in the Sacatepéquez department of Guatemala, one of the most celebrated coffee-growing regions in Central America. Produced from 18 farms managed by Luis Pedro Zelaya Zamora, this coffee is designed to showcase the classic profile that has made Antigua coffees so respected throughout the specialty coffee world. Rich volcanic loam soil, high elevations between 1,500–1,650 meters, and a climate shaped by surrounding volcanoes create ideal growing conditions for producing coffees with exceptional sweetness, clarity, and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"661\" data-end=\"1243\"\u003eThe Bella Carmona blend represents generations of coffee-growing tradition and careful craftsmanship. Cherries are delivered daily to the Bella Vista wet mill, where Luis Pedro and his team oversee meticulous quality control throughout every stage of processing. After harvest, the coffee is fully washed, fermented overnight, and slowly patio-dried under the Guatemalan sun to preserve its structure and complexity. The combination of traditional processing methods and precise milling practices allows the coffee’s terroir-driven characteristics to shine clearly in the final cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1245\" data-end=\"1694\"\u003eThe varietals cultivated throughout the Bella Carmona program include Bourbon, dwarf Bourbon, red and yellow Caturra, and Catimor hybrids, many grown beneath carefully maintained shade canopies throughout the Antigua Valley. These older Bourbon-based genetics contribute to the coffee’s refined sweetness and layered cup profile, while the volcanic soil and cool mountain evenings help develop the bright acidity and dense body Antigua is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1696\" data-end=\"2111\"\u003eIn the cup, expect notes of lemon and kumquat layered with raisin sweetness, warm cinnamon spice, and rich cocoa undertones. The acidity is vibrant yet polished, bringing brightness and structure without overpowering the cup. Its balanced sweetness, smooth body, and lingering finish make Bella Carmona a classic expression of Guatemalan coffee — elegant, comforting, and deeply rooted in the traditions of Antigua.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46876745892028,"sku":null,"price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/5967\/1740\/files\/GuateBellaCarmona_b1dcc014-b9f5-412c-bda3-dbbfd5321dd2.png?v=1779988851","url":"https:\/\/freelancecoffeeproject.com\/products\/guatemala-bella-carmona","provider":"Freelance Coffee Project","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
