Front Street-introduction to Guatemalan Coffee

Guatemala is a big coffee producer in Central America, ranking eighth in the world in terms of output.

The most populous country in Central America after Mexico provides a rich labour force for coffee production, which is grown on most small-scale farms. 2/3 of the country is mountainous, and the west and south belong to volcanic belts. The humid climate and rich volcanic ash soil provide unique natural conditions for coffee production. Coffee production is widely distributed in all parts of the south-central region except the Peton lowlands in the north.

Coffee grade

Traditional Guatemalan coffee is graded according to the altitude at which it grows:

SHB,strictly hard bean, extremely hard beans, ≥ 1370m

HB,hard bean, hard beans, 1370-1066m

Prime-Extra Prime, selected, 762m-1066m

Under the background of boutique coffee, on the basis of the original grade, the coffee from 8 boutique producing areas can be marked with their respective producing area names, representing different flavors, but if the cup test results of some coffees in the producing areas are not consistent with the flavor of the producing areas, they can only be exported with the regular grade of SHB.

The Guatemalan coffee variety belongs to the bourbon species, which is one of the more sour varieties, which tastes mellow and slightly wild. Even if you don't drink it, the pleasant aroma is also a kind of enjoyment, and your thoughts will float far away with its unique aroma, freeing you from the cage of life and work.

When you take a sip, the seductive fragrance swirls around in your mouth, swallowing the first mouthful, which seems rare and ordinary, but as the coffee cools slowly, the multiple fruit aromas give you a slight sweet smell to surprise you, and the faint smoke aroma gives you an aftertaste.
