A precise 15g coffee bag blending pear, pineapple, and tropical fruits with high natural sweetness.
Anaerobic tropical sweetness.. in a concentrated bag.
The "San Marcos" bag gives you a unique opportunity to enjoy an exceptional Guatemalan crop with ease. This pouch contains exactly 15 grams of "Bourbon" variety beans grown in the San Marcos region at altitudes ranging from 1600 to 1800 meters, which underwent the advanced "Anaerobic Drying" technique that adds exceptional complexity to the flavors.
High natural sweetness manifests in the cup, along with notes of pear, pineapple, and tropical fruits. This cup features a full body and balanced medium acidity. At Ninth Bar, backed by over 15 years of experience serving more than 3 million cups of specialty coffee from our Jeddah roastery, we precisely roasted and packaged this crop to a "medium to medium-dark" degree to be ready for a concentrated V60 filter brew that highlights tropical notes, or a rich espresso highlighting pear and pineapple sweetness.
Flavor Experience:
The sip opens with the natural sweetness of pear, developing to reveal a refreshing pineapple touch, settling with the depth of tropical fruits in a full body that leaves a luxurious finish.

FAQ

3- Why was a "medium to medium-dark" roast chosen for this crop?
Because this roast level adds more density and full body to the coffee, while preserving the natural sweetness without burning it.
4- How do I brew this bag with V60 even though the standard recipe is for 20g?
Simply use the entire bag's contents (15g) and add 225ml of water instead of 300ml to maintain the same (1:15) ratio and required coffee density.
