Batdorf & Bronson Guatemala La Esperanza coffee

I’ve teamed up with Batdorf & Bronson to review some of their amazing coffee roasts with you.

Batdorf & Bronson is an Olympia, Washington-based coffee company known for their cult-favorite Dancing Goats® Blend. Dancing Goats is our very favorite coffee, and the daily brew here at HerKentucky Headquarters. You can read my review of that roast here. The fabulous folks at Batdorf sent me a few other coffees to sample, and I’m happy to share my tasting notes with y’all. I absolutely loved the Guatemala Finca La Esperanza. This was from their limited-edition Voyager series during the winter. I hope it’s something they can recreate in the future, as it is an amazing roast. This coffee is made from a single varietal of coffee beans, from one family farm in northern Guatemala. The flavor was unique and amazing.

Batdorf and Bronson Guatemala Finca La Esperanza

This coffee was like a warm, balanced cup of well-made German chocolate cake. It was amazingly balanced and light for a cup that presented so many dessert notes. Bob immediately noted that it would be incredible with a pastry or piece of cake with fruit notes. We will certainly keep an eye out for any future Batdorf offerings from the Herrera family farm, as we LOVED this roast!
