The Republic of Guatemala (Spanish: República de Guatemala) is located in the southern part of North America. It is bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Caribbean Sea to the east, Mexico to the north, Belize to the northeast, Honduras and El Salvador to the southeast.

Guatemala is one of the world's top coffees, an extra-hard coffee grown at high altitudes and volcanic terrain. There are eight coffee producing areas, each producing coffee flavor is different, but in summary, Guatemala coffee presents a mild and mellow overall texture, elegant aroma, and with a special and pleasant acidity similar to fruit acid, like coffee in the aristocracy, among which Antigua Classic coffee (Antigua Classic) is deeply recommended by coffee connoisseurs around the world.

Antigua is a famous coffee producer, rich volcanic soil, low humidity, strong sunlight and cool evening winds are the characteristics of Antigua. Three spectacular active volcanoes-Agua, Acatenango and Fuego-form a beautiful valley. Every 30 years or so, the area around Antigua is hit by a volcanic eruption, which provides more nitrogen to the already fertile land, and sufficient rainfall and sunshine make the area more suitable for growing coffee. If you enjoy Antigua with chocolate, there will be unexpected discoveries. The most important thing is that it is very rich in flavor, richer in taste, and it has a fascinating tobacco flavor, known as "the most perfect coffee bean." Because of this unique charcoal-burning aroma, Antigua coffee is also known as "cigarette coffee".
