Antigua Guatemala is famous for its coffee. At only 28 miles from Guatemala City, Antigua is located between three volcanoes: Acatenango, Fuego and Agua. The privileged weather, altitude, volcanic soils and traditional agricultural practices contribute to the elaboration of one of the best coffees in the world. Antigua´s genuine coffee offers a cup that perfectly combines body, taste and aroma. It is internationally acclaimed for its unique characteristics: fragrance, floral aroma, light body and balance, mild notes of chocolate, good taste and acidity levels. Finca Medina boasts the soft suggestion of fruit that growing, milling, and processing yields, and the brightness and sweetness that is characteristic of the origin. This coffee is set apart from many among our Central American offerings, thanks to the fermentation, milling, and overall processing and to the complexity that all of this introduces to the cup.

This is my “go to” coffee and I have followed RhoadesRoast from coast to coast for the quality of the beans and the skill they employ in roasting.
Regarding another customer’s negative review, I would say that the roast level they choose (medium) is too high for this lovely bean. I enjoy these small beans roasted at Light-Medium.
Thank you Rhoads for the consistency of the beans and roast.
I usually buy Mexican Chiapas medium roast coffee but usually give something new a try. This medium roast Guatemala Finca Medina Antigua Peaberry is roasted so dark it looks black. The only flavor it has is like charcoal. Strong flavor with astringent and bitter after taste. I'm not a coffee snob by any means... my go to morning coffee was shoveling a spoonful of instant coffee into my mouth and drink some cold water... swish and swallow. Then I discovered whole beans and started to grind them myself to make morning coffee because the Mexican Chiapas medium roast had such a great flavor with very pleasant after taste wanting me to drink more of it. The coffee made from these beans taste is so bad I usually end up dumping most of my mug and get something else to drink to get rid of the awful bitter and astringent taste in my mouth. But at least this coffee has made me drink something healthier in the mornings... bought a case of V8 juice to drink after drinking some of this coffee to get rid of the taste this coffee leaves in my mouth.
Switched back to Mexican Chiapas medium roast which is very good tasting coffee and is same roast with medium full city.
