Last Updated: 2025/08/21, Located in the tropics, there are many volcanoes in the territory, the northern and eastern coastal plains have a tropical rain forest climate, and the southern mountains have a subtropical climate. The year is divided into two dry and wet seasons, with the wet season from May to October and the dry season from November to April of the following year. The annual precipitation is 2000-3000 mm in the northeast and 500-1000 mm in the south. Forests account for half of the country's area and are the best latitude for coffee production.

It is located in the tropics, with many volcanoes in the territory. The northern and eastern coastal plain areas belong to tropical rain forest climate, and the southern mountainous areas belong to subtropical climate. It is divided into dry and wet seasons in one year, with wet season from May to October and dry season from November to April of the following year. Annual precipitation is 2,000 - 3,000 mm in the northeast and 500- 1,000 mm in the south. Forest accounts for half of the country's area, is the best production location latitude of coffee, because coffee is an important cash crop in the local area, resulting in rich coffee culture, people drink coffee every day, most people have a cup of coffee for lunch.

Like Costa Rica, El Salvador, Mexico and Honduras, Guatemala is classified according to altitude. Coffee produced at higher altitudes is generally of higher quality than coffee produced at lower altitudes because the temperature decreases with altitude. At high altitudes, the slower coffee grows, the more favorable it is for the accumulation of good substances. That's why altitude is used to grade quality. So what is the classification method based on altitude? In Guatemala, for example, the higher the altitude, the higher the density of coffee beans and the higher the grade of green coffee beans:

The highest grade is SHB, planted above 1350m;

HB hard bean is next, planting altitude is 1200m~1400m;

There are also SH slightly hard beans, planted at an altitude of 1200m.

Coffee was introduced to Guatemala in 1750 by Father Jesuit, and German colonists developed the coffee industry in the late 19th century. Today, most of the coffee industry is produced in the south of the country. Guatemala has seven major coffee-producing regions: Antigua, Coban, Lake Atitlan, Huehuetenango, Fraijanes, Oriente, and San Mareos.

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. 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.

Antigua coffee is produced at Camana Estate, where the best quality coffee is El Pulcal, which is not only of good quality, but if compared with other Latin American coffees, this coffee can be said to be quite complete, rich and amazing, if you enjoy it with chocolate, there will be unexpected discoveries. The most important thing is that it has a very rich flavor, a richer texture, and it has a mesmerizing tobacco flavor.
