Taste
The flavour profiles of Guatemala Huehuetenango coffee are expertly balanced to guarantee a truly unique and satisfying experience. Notes of floral/fruity sweetness that is complemented by a silky body
Origin
Currents of hot air sweep up from the Plains of Tehuantepec, in Oaxaca, Mexico, and combine with the cool air descending from the Cuchumatanes Mountains. This creates a microclimate that’s protected from frost and enables coffee to be cultivated at up to 2,000 metres.
Huehuetenango’s extreme remoteness requires that nearly all producers process their own coffee. Fortunately, the region has abundant rivers and streams, making it relatively easy for producers to set up mills. What’s even more fortunate is the geographic conditions, which help to produce the exceptional, fresh Guatemala Huehuetenango green coffee beans with their distinct acidity and fruity flavours.
