Tekisik

Catuai

Tekisik is a dwarf mutation of the Bourbon varietal that produces exceptional quality. Unlike Caturra, Pacas or Catuai, the Tekisik varietal maintains great internodal spacing and is therefore a lower yielding varietal in comparison to the aforementioned varietals. This is advantageous to producing outstanding quality. Developed in El Salvador this varietal has been planted by Guatemalan and Honduran farmers consciously committed to maximizing their farm’s potential. Like classic Bourbon, Tekisik’s branches are inverted at a 45 degree angle and bean size tends to be small and chunky. Tekisik produces exceptional flavor with layered acidity and a distinctly heavy mouthfeel. The sweetness of this coffee is intense, leaning towards sugar browning flavors like caramel and brown sugar.
