Read about Grind Types

We have recently adjusted our grind options. With that in mind, we wanted to offer this primer so that you can choose the best grind-style for your preferred brewing method.

Whole Bean-- While we are happy to grind your beans, your coffee will stay fresher longer if you grind it as you go. There are many great home grinder options out there and many are surprisingly inexpensive.

Drip-- This is a medium grind that is the most versatile. Brewing methods using drip include home coffee drip machines, pour-overs (like Hario), Chemex, and AeroPress.

Espresso-- This grind is generally used for espresso makers. This includes home machines and stove-tip espresso pots. The grind is the most fine and is optimized to work with a high pressure extraction system.

Coarse-- Coarse is for percolators, french press, cold brewing, and sometimes AeroPress. Coarse is the biggest/loosest grind and enables water to move more freely steeping coffee for extraction.

All of the above, while generally true in the industry, also should be adjusted for preference. Feel free to experiment and please contact us if you have questions and we will be happy to work with you.

Product Overview

A sweet, caramel-like cup with nutty, almond notes, this Guatemalan coffee is farmed by our friends at the Asociación Chajulense. The city of Chajul, where the co-op is headquartered, is a Mayan urban center, echoing a time when Mayan kingdoms ruled the land. It is one of the three towns that makes up the Ixil Triangle that is located in the Quiche department of Guatemala's western highlands. This area was particularly affected during the Guatemalan Civil War, and the co-op was formed in 1988 by 40 families who were focused on sustaining members, the environment and their local culture. About 1,500 farmers from 56 nearby communities make up the co-op today, and since 2013, the group has been working with the non-profit, The Coffee Trust, to combat a new adversary: La Roya (the coffee rust). La Roya is a devastating fungus that kills coffee plants and reduces crop yield. Through a farmer-to-farmer best-practice-sharing program, members have learned how to replenish nutrients in their soil that helps coffee trees resist La Roya.

    Great Coffee!

    Posted by Porteous, Robert on Nov 30th 2023

    We love Cafe Campesino coffees! I was not a coffee drinker until I started buying these coffees. Now, I am hooked and cannot live without them! The flavors are so smooth. Not bitter like I had always experienced with coffee in the past.

    Great morning coffee

    Posted by Bill on Jun 28th 2023

    I bought this coffee because I was wanting a morning cup that I could drink without cream or sugar and it hit the spot- great with my french press.

    Posted by Audrey York on Jan 1st 2023

    I am so delighted every time this coffee is delivered to my house! I first got a taste of Cafe Campesino while working in Americus at Center Stage Market (which sadly no longer exists). I have loved this coffee and this company ever since, and continue to enjoy it at home every single morning!

    Great for making cold brew, ready to drink or concentrate. I also use it for hot pour-over and iced coffee. I do wish they would list the variety used in each roast.
