Guatemala Coffee producing area-Pacaya Volcano

□ Pacaya Volcano is an active volcano (location: 14 °22 °51 "N 90 °36 °04" O), 33 km south of the capital of Guatemala (Guatemala City). It is one of the most active volcanoes in the world. The local government opens mountaineering routes to allow visitors to climb the edge of the crater 2552 meters above sea level to enjoy the heat and sulfur smell of the crater. Due to the rich mineral content in the surrounding soil due to the volcanic ash emitted by the volcano, and the great temperature difference between day and night around the volcano, the coffee beans produced in this area have a unique flavor. According to the data provided by bean merchants, small coffee farmers in the volcanic areas of Pacaya will choose to plant their coffee very close to the volcanic peak in order to get more nutrients, so of course they have to face the risk of unexpected volcanic eruptions. as a result, the coffee produced in this area is of low quantity and high quality, which makes people flock to it.

In the early days, the family that produced this Guatemalan coffee bean sold the harvested coffee fruit to the owner of the processing plant. Since 2015, it has only begun to build its own treatment plant, refine its own post-processing, and establish its own brand with 'Gold Mountain'. So far, it has established a good reputation in the volcanic areas of Pacaya.
