About this Coffee
Huehuetenango is a department in the highlands of the Sierra de Los Cuchumatanes in the South-Western region of Guatemala, and is considered to be one of the best regions for coffee cultivation in the country. It is a dry region protected from frost by the warm air currents that sweep eastward from Mexico’s Tehuantepec region. The high elevations of the mountain range (the tallest non-volcanic group in Central America) allow the coffees to develop the distinctive flavour characteristics for which they are renowned.
