From the producer

The coffee is grown by women members of the COOPESQUI cooperative in Guatemala, an organization that is also managed by women.

From the roaster

Intelligentsia highlights this coffee for its jammy sweetness and soft citrus notes, reflecting a successful long-term sourcing relationship that began in 2020.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This women-grown lot documents a multi-year relationship between Intelligentsia and the women-run COOPESQUI cooperative, without assigning an unverified farm, region, variety or process.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Verified the exact release

Confirmed COOPESQUI, the women-grown and women-run attribution, $21 price, sold-out status, and Intelligentsia's sensory language from the exact product page.

02
Added cooperative-level geography

Linked Huehuetenango and recorded La Libertad only as COOPESQUI's documented location; no individual farm or grower was inferred.

03
Preserved lot-level limits

Left the individual farms, cultivars, process, elevation, harvest, fermentation, drying, package weight, roast level, and roast date unresolved.

04
Kept scoring boundaries intact

No owner score or public-sentiment rating was added because no qualifying independent exact-release tasting review was verified.

What was added?

Verified $21 USD price, current sold-out status, Huehuetenango relationship, cooperative-location context, and evidence-backed editorial sections.

What wasn't added?

No farm, individual grower, cultivar, process, elevation, harvest, fermentation, drying, package weight, roast level, roast date, owner score, or public-sentiment score was inferred.

Why it matters

The profile now identifies the cooperative's documented geography while keeping cooperative location distinct from an undisclosed farm identity.

What you might taste

Jammy sweetness, soft citrus, and a buttery shortbread-like texture; Intelligentsia also labels the profile Caramel + Stone Fruit.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

Research complete — no qualifying reviews yet

Our research pipeline scanned public reviews, videos, forums and discussions for this coffee (last pass 2026-10-28) and found no independent review of this exact release that meets our verification standards. When qualifying sources appear, they'll be published here.

What we found

The exact independent catalog page has zero reviews. Similarly named coffees from other roasters, seller pages, directories, roaster-level commentary, and later COOPESQUI releases were excluded.
