Guatemalan Coffee Flavor producing area Ekatran Valley

1. Acatenango Valley ®:

The Acatenango Valley Valley, which is 2000 meters (6500 feet) above sea level, is shaded and ecologically unique, and the nearby Fuego volcano continues to erupt, making its coarse, sandy soil rich in a variety of minerals. Temperate sea breezes from the Pacific and a seasonal climate allow coffee in this region to be dried by sunlight and processed according to traditional family methods that have been accumulated over the years.

two。 Antigua coffee (Antigua Coffee ®):

Rich volcanic soil, low humidity, plenty of sunshine and cool nights are the climatic characteristics of Antigua coffee producing areas. The valley is surrounded by three volcanoes: Agua, Fuego and Acatenango. Tierra del Fuego volcano is one of the three most active volcanoes in Guatemala, and the ash from frequent eruptions makes the soil of Antigua rich in minerals. The volcanic pumice in the soil can maintain humidity and help overcome the lack of rainfall in Antigua. In addition, the tree shade in this area is particularly dense, which can withstand occasional frosts and protect coffee plants from frosts.

The area has accumulated excellent planting and processing techniques for a long time.
