Description

Origin and Plantation
This Guatemalan coffee comes from the growing region of Antigua, which is renowned for its outstanding quality and is probably the most famous growing region. Most of Guatemala’s coffee plantations are located in the south of the country. There, the fertile soils of the volcanic mountainsides of the Sierra Madre provide ideal conditions for Arabica beans. Coffee from Guatemala has always been among the worlds best.

Character and Taste
“Sierra Madre” has a fine and fruity acidity with a distinct, full body. Its complex and rich aroma is surrounded by a harmonic mildness. Its light cocoa note can be noticed in the aftertaste.

Particularities
Guatemalan coffee could be awarded a prize for the best quality in Central America. But this does not automatically mean that all Guatemalan coffees are good. The country has an outstanding potential for exceptionally good coffee. Plantations with huge estates or small micro farms within the same region offer different qualities with a large variety of flavour characteristics.
