Coffee Story
Introducing coffee from the renowned Huehuetenango region, famous for its coffee estates in Guatemala. Located at the highest altitude in Guatemala, the nights here are much cooler than the days. Thanks to this, coffee cherries grow at a slower pace. Overcoming adversities, they develop a high density, bringing out the characteristic sweetness and a distinctive crisp acidity. In this coffee, you can taste the rich sweetness of molasses and the flavor of butter tart. Following that, the sweet essence of baked fruits and a hint of acidity enrich the cup even more.
With this coffee, we convey the heart of the farm owner, Emilio.
"La Montaña Farm has become our important source of income and a place where we spend the most crucial moments of our lives. Thanks to this farm, we feel hope for a brighter future."
After experiencing the aroma of the coffee, I say to you:
"Coffee warmly illuminates our important moments. May this sip of coffee become a small beacon of hope in your challenging day."

What is the best consumed date for coffee beans? Are your coffee beans freshly-roasted?
We recommend 7-21 days after the initial roasting date to allow for degassing to take place, allowing the flavour of the coffee compounds to be properly extracted. Within the first seven days, roasted coffee beans are still releasing carbon dioxide and degassing. If not degassed properly, it will hinder the extraction of ground coffee particles during the brewing process.
What are the differences between Single Origins and Blends?
Single origin beans are harvested from a single producer, crop, or region, usually delivering a taste profile that is unique to its origins. Blends are a mixture of a few single origin beans, producing a rich and expressive flavor profile.
How do I choose coffee that is suitable for me?
