About the Coffee

The farming region of Huehuetenango (pronounced way-way-tenango) has greatly improved quality over the past decade, slowly overtaking the more famous Antigua region in popularity and demand. The region borders the Mexican Chiapas mountain range, so it’s grown at higher elevations than any other region in Guatemala. Huehuetenango coffees tend to have chocolate and citrus undertones, and are really smooth -- neither harshness nor bright acidity of an Antigua.

This lot of Guatemala caught our attention in particular for two reasons. First is how creamy, silky smooth the mouthfeel is on it. Second, is the chocolate-nutty taste that makes it delicious to drink. It is really such a nice flavor to find in a coffee.

​

Try medium roast for a smooth, low acidity coffee with a lot of chocolate, slight almond nuttiness, and a sweet aftertaste.
