Guatemalan coffee is arguably the crown jewel of Central America coffees.
There are diverse growing regions within the country that have the altitude, soil and climate conditions to produce great coffee.
Antigua coffees are well-known and highly rated. Huehuetenango from the north highland can be exceptional and have distinct acidity and fruited flavors. Acatenango, Atitlan, Coban, Fraijanes and Quiche can be nice.
But the key to a great coffee isn't in the regional demarcation, but in the characteristics specific to the farm itself, and the farmer that works it. Is the health of the soil maintained with good agricultural practices?
Is the picking done with care, excluding under-ripe and over-ripe fruits? Is the wet-process performed with diligence and consistency? Is the coffee tree a sustainable variety, or a newer over-producing hybrid?
