Guatemala Organic Coffee - Medium Roast - Whole Bean 340g
$14.99
This Guatemalan organic coffee comes from the Huehuetenango region in Guatemala, which is known for its high-altitude coffee. The AAPICUC Cooperative has small producers with an average of 3 hectares and aims to promote environmentally friendly cultivation of coffee while improving the economic and social well-being of their families. It reinvests premiums from producing and selling organic or fair trade coffees into sustainable practices and community development initiatives, such as waste management and training programs in sustainable agriculture.
The high altitude of this region, combined with the dry, hot winds that come in from the mountains of Mexico’s Tehuantepec plain, provides ideal conditions for coffee cultivation. The slow growth at high altitudes leads to a more complex and nuanced flavor profile in the coffee beans, with distinct notes of citrus, sugar cane, and stone fruit.
