The coffee has a slight bitter note, but full bodied. It is on the stronger side and definitely has a high caffeine content. Would Buy again.

For those of you roasting with the SR800 with extension tube, or anyone really, roasting the Antiqua’s one minute into first crack, then dial down the temperature just a notch till end (SR800 Settings after your Dry Phase 6/9/XX into FC, time one minute, then 6/8/XX and End it @ 6/8/8:00 Fan/Heat/Time remaining from 20:00). Wow! Flavor explodes! Excellent Medium-Dark Coffee.

I will admit that I didn’t quite nail the roast on this coffee but still got some amazing berry and chocolate flavors. Will definitely be trying this one again.

Received in Guatamalan sample pack during 22% off sale, this is probably my new favorite, replacing the La Flor del Cafe. Roasted to City+. Wonderful aroma just fills the house. It's even smoother, creamier and more milk chocolatey. Taste coats your mouth and stays there for a while. Just outstanding!

If you get the roast right this is impressive coffee roasted long to get into 2nd crack pulling at 430F as a dark medium. I have never had Guatemalan coffee bought pre roasted this good. Great flavor to the last drop.

This is #3 in my list - Sumatra, Columbian and this one in the order of my ranking....I think this one is not as strong/bold as Sumatra - I am mostly a bold-coffee lover...

Great for espresso. Originally bought these beans already roasted from a well known roaster. Decided to seek it out and roast for myself and couldn't be happier. We primarily roast for espresso, took it to 2nd crack as others have mentioned with very nice profile. I'll also agree, a minimum of 3 days to off gas made all the difference. Would highly recommend.

Really like this coffee. Roasted just shy of the 2nd crack. This is fast becoming a regular morning treat, with just a touch of Italian Sweet Cream.- French Press style. Highly recommend.

The beans were inconsistent in sizing. I was not able to attach a photo lineup of the culprits. This caused a bit of difficulty in timing of roasting. I always do a few test batches. The first batch roasted much quicker than I expected given the reported altitude at which the plants are cultivated. I stopped at the beginning of second crack. We prefer a darker roast but I wanted to see if I would be missing out on flavor. The coffee had a milder taste which was expected. The next batch was taken through the second crack. Smoke appeared earlier than expected. We ended up with a dark bean, brown not black. We experimented with the amount of coffee needed for brewing and have found a great result. Would buy again. Don’t forget to rest and de-gass.

Really nice coffee. As of this minute, I'm drinking a cup made in my French press. Nothing not to love about this bean. Just buy some.

We roasted this to a dark roast pushing the roast and color without burning.
Result was a great color, aroma and oil appearance. It was ground coarse for French Press use. I personally have not tasted it, since it for someone else.

This has been my daily brew for years, it’s so good that I’m afraid to let the secret out. This marvelously complex coffee is an integral component to the quality of my life and a gray fog would likely mask my morning world without it. Please don’t increase demand and drive up the price. It would increase the number of grumpy old people hunting me down, because I released the truth about this secret elixir.

This is a beautiful, rich coffee. It has become one of my favorites. If you haven't tried it, you have missed one of life's more pleasurable moments.
