Guatemala Guatemala is a country with many volcanoes. The coffee produced under the volcanic soil is fine coffee with rich taste. The average altitude in Guatemala is very high, which means that the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large. This harsh environment with large temperature difference between day and night makes the coffee fruit grow longer and slower on the coffee tree. Beans are hard beans, but the flavor is more complete and richer.

New Oriental

Rich volcanic soil, low humidity, plenty of sunshine and cool nights are the characteristics of this producing area. The valley is surrounded by three volcanoes: Agua, Fuego and Acatenango. Volcanic ash from the eruption makes the soil of Antigua rich in minerals. Volcanic pumice can maintain humidity and overcome the lack of rainfall in Antigua; dense tree shade protects against occasional frosts.

The new coffee beans come from the Cadilas Manor, a top manor located in the New Oriental region of Guatemala.

Wine sun flavor: pineapple, cantaloupe, dried apricot, sugared lemon peel, Bordeaux wine, green tea and cinnamon spices, full of sweetness and smoked plum aromas.

In the early New Oriente region of Guatemala, it was common for berry buyers to regularly buy coffee cherries from farmers and then resell them to larger middlemen, where they were resold to the town of Esquipulas, where they were mixed with other batches to form a large batch of SHB that could not be traced back, and finally sold around the world under the name New Oriental (New Oriente). In view of this, more and more international raw bean traders are trying to change this situation, working with local partners to produce coffee raw beans with excellent flavor and traceable origin, breaking the traditional vicious circle. Guava Plain Manor is one of the important members.

The name New Oriental is located in the easternmost part of Guatemala. Unlike Antigua, which is less than an hour's drive from the capital, New Oriental has to drive straight to the easternmost border with Honduras. Plan del Guayabo is located next to the Volc á n de Sucht á n volcano, which means "guava plain" in Spanish. The manor is owned by Benjamin Donado (Mr. Benjam í n Donado), which means "guava plain" in Spanish. The Donado family has been engaged in coffee production for more than 20 years since 1990. Last year, a small amount of washed SL28 was produced in the guava plain, but this year, in cooperation with traders, new batches of sun-dried wine with unique flavor have been added. When cooperating with traders in this series, we have also communicated on the spot about the harvest standards and sun treatment methods (such as turning and drying days). From the results, it can be said to be a very happy harvest. In particular, SL28 is still a rare variety in Central America.

SL28, which originated from Lake Tanganyika in East Africa, was discovered in 1931. It has broad and reddish leaves, can adapt to high altitude environment, and has excellent drought and disease resistance. Its yield is higher than that of traditional tree species, and its flavor is unique. Wine sun flavor: pineapple, cantaloupe, dried apricot, sugared lemon peel, Bordeaux wine, green tea and cinnamon spices, full of sweetness and smoked plum aromas.
