Cristo Rey, the specialty of the home, grown at Guadalupe Gold Farm

The specialty of the home. Cristo Rey is Guadalupe Roastery’s signature coffee: a washed lot from the highlands of Central America, cupped at 84 points and built to the same profile year-round, so every bag tastes the way you remember it. Named for Christ the King, it is the coffee we pour first at Guadalupe Roastery and the one our families reach for every morning. At 84 points it is an exceptional score for a coffee you can drink every single day.

In the cup: milk-chocolate sweetness, a bright touch of lemon and a round, balanced finish. Smooth, never bitter and easy on the stomach, which is exactly what our customers keep telling us.
