How to Brew




Before he became a farmer, Aurelio Villatoro was a mechanic, a detail that still shows in how he works. His tools are different now, but the mindset remains: attention to parts, rhythm, and balance. At his farm Villaure (a blend of his first and last names) in Huehuetenango, Guatemala, every decision reflects that same quiet precision.
The land here borders Mexico, high enough for cool air to slow the ripening of the fruit. Aurelio walks the rows daily, inspecting cherries for color and feel, noting changes that most might miss. When harvest comes, he applies the washed process with near scientific care: minimal water, steady fermentation, and slow greenhouse drying until the parchment feels just right.
The cup is calm and deliberate, with red apple and milk chocolate carried on a soft, creamy body. It tastes like something carefully tuned rather than discovered, a reminder that skill can be both exacting and generous at once.
