I flew in to Guatemala on Monday and started my apprenticeship yesterday. It's been two very long, very rewarding days. I can't believe how much I've learned already. Yesterday we did a french roast order and a couple of the coffees Mike has in his shop. The Hue Hue Tenango he has is unbelievable. I've never tasted so much chocolate in anything. it's like drinking a chocolate bar it's so rich. Today we roasted some more and did a little cupping and tomorrow is more roasting and more cupping. In a few days we'll be heading out to some farms. I'm so friggin pumped. That's it for now, I'm exhausted and tomorrow starts bright and early, peace.

Awesome to hear that things are going well for you! Last week I stopped by Auburn to visit with the folks at Cambridge and started wondering how you were doing. Keep up the posts!
