Antigua Coffee, Guatemala introduces Atitlan, one of the five major volcanic producing areas.

The aroma of coffee liberates all forms, hearts and national boundaries. Through coffee, the mood leaves the country at any time and lands in a strange country half a world away. Even at the end of the world, you can share a mood. Antigua was the capital of the Spanish colonial period in 1543. Although this emerald-like valley has been surrounded by active volcanoes in all directions, layered, deliberately waiting and full of dangers since ancient times, its vastness, vastness and fertility still tempted Spaniards to build a capital in the precarious cliff valley.

The volcano once destroyed the once-prosperous capital in an instant, robbing it of all its prosperity and beauty overnight. After this subversive mountain city, the splendor has disappeared for more than 200 years, and Antigua has never swaggered again. After being dull, Antigua is now run by the last remaining Indians. These hardworking Indians became later coffee producers. They not only discovered the rich and attractive unique smell of Antigua coffee, but also brought it to people all over the world. Today, Antigua coffee enjoys a reputation as the best quality coffee in the world and is praised by coffee connoisseurs as the best and most distinctive coffee in the world.

Mayan coffee culture

Some people say that you will see a wonderful story in the unique smoky taste of a cup of Antigua coffee in Guatemala. It is a story about Indians.

Drinking pure Antigua coffee from Guatemala and playing a South American folk song. Our thoughts can be pulled far away, as far as we have never met before. The wise Mayans who once existed in the land of Guatemala, after a day's work under coffee trees we have never seen before, they enjoyed authentic Guatemalan coffee after dinner and watched the sunset fade away on the sea level.

Mayan culture is not only one of the most important ancient cultures in the world, but also an important classical culture in America. According to historical data, the Mayans cultivated new grain varieties that made great contributions to mankind in agricultural production, such as corn, tomatoes, pumpkins, beans, sweet potatoes, peppers, cocoa, vanilla and tobacco, among which the cultivation of corn made the greatest contribution to mankind. Although there is no record of coffee here, today, most coffee growers in Guatemala can be regarded as descendants of the Mayans, and they like to be called that.
