Guatemala Antigua Coffee
Antigua Valley is Guatemala's oldest and best-known coffee-producing region. Volcanoes and shallow water tables create a dry microclimate characterized by low humidity, plenty of sun and cool nights.
Antigua is an enclosed valley surrounded by three volcanoes: Agua, Acatenango and Fuego. Antigua is flat and slightly sloping, unlike other coffee producing areas located in volcanic areas.
Most coffee trees are grown in the heart of the valley, but even so, elevation has reached 5000 feet; in addition, some farmers grow coffee on the slopes of volcanoes, at elevations approaching 5600 feet.
The extremely high pumice content of Antigua soil (from the active Fuego volcano) keeps humidity constant at 65% year-round, which is very different from other volcanic coffee producing areas, where humidity usually varies greatly between dry and wet seasons.
Fertile volcanic soils, low humidity, plenty of sunshine and cool nights all make Antigua unique.
The majestic three volcanoes Agua, Acatenango and Fuego surround Antigua Valley. Every once in a while, Fuego-one of three active volcanoes in Guatemala-adds fresh ash rich in minerals to Antigua's soil. Volcanic pumice in the soil keeps the soil moist, making up for Antigua's low rainfall-the lowest of Guatemala's eight coffee-producing regions.
Like all Guatemala specialty coffees, Antigua coffee is grown in shade. In Antigua, shade is mainly used to protect coffee trees from frost, which sometimes occurs during the colder nights from December to February. The dense shade combined with the shallow aquifer creates a unique microclimate for the coffee trees that inhabit it.
