The Signature Guatemalan Profile

Guatemalan coffee is highly prized for its full body, bright acidity, and powerful chocolate base, all products of the region's famous volcanic soil and microclimates.

Volcanic Terroir & Ideal Climate: Grown in the highlands, where rich volcanic soil and frequent rainfall create ideal conditions, these beans develop slowly and densely. This unique terroir contributes directly to the coffee's signature smoothness and high-quality structure.

The Medium-Dark Commitment: Roasted to a perfect Medium-Dark level, this profile is specifically chosen to fully develop the inherent sweetness and rich, satisfying chocolate flavours that Guatemala is known for. This roast delivers high strength and a smooth body without any harsh edges.

Flavour Foundation: This single-origin offers a foundation of deep Cocoa notes, beautifully structured by a Bittersweet quality. It is a supremely versatile coffee, perfect for those who seek richness, depth, and reliability in their daily brew.

Recommended Brewing Method

Given its Medium-Dark roast, rich body, and pronounced Cocoa notes, this Guatemalan coffee is a true workhorse, excelling in almost any brewing style:

Best for Espresso: The deep Cocoa and Bittersweet balance create a classic, creamy, and highly robust espresso shot. It is the ideal backbone for lattes, cappuccinos, and all milk-based drinks.

Excellent for French Press: This immersion method enhances the inherent heavy body and brings the deep Cocoa notes to the forefront for a hearty, deeply satisfying cup.

Great for Filter Coffee (Drip/Pour-Over): Brewing as a simple black coffee yields a beautifully smooth, consistent, and full-flavored result, highlighting its everyday drinkability.

About The Roastery

Mont58 Coffee is the passion project of husband-and-wife team, Shai and Maya. Their journey began quite literally at home in 2018, when they took the plunge and jacked in their full-time jobs to start roasting coffee in a humble garden shed in South-East London. Shai, whose passion for coffee was sparked by childhood memories of drinking cardamom-spiced coffee with his grandfather, honed his craft on a tiny 250g machine.

This small-batch venture quickly took off, especially during the lockdown when the local community wholeheartedly embraced their door-to-door, bike-delivered coffee.

While they have since scaled up to a larger roastery in Ashford, Kent, and opened further sites, the spirit of that original shed, small business, big heart, remains central to their award-winning, ethical, and community-focused mission. It's a proper 'started from the ground up' success story, but with significantly better beans.
