High-quality coffee beans are introduced in the coffee manor of Guatemala, which has the longest history.
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. The forest accounts for half of the country's area and is the location of the best latitude for coffee production. Because coffee is an important cash crop in the area, it has given rise to a rich coffee culture. People drink coffee every day. Most people have a cup of coffee for lunch.
Like Costa Rica, El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras and other Central American countries, Guatemala's classification is based on altitude. Coffee produced at high altitudes is generally of higher quality than at lower altitudes, because the higher the altitude, the lower the temperature. At high elevations, the slower the coffee grows, the more beneficial it will be to the accumulation of good substances. That's why there is a way to classify quality by altitude. So what is the grading method based on altitude? Let's take Guatemala as an example. The higher the altitude, the higher the density of coffee beans and the higher the grade of raw coffee beans:
The highest grade is SHB very hard beans, which are grown above 1350m above sea level.
The second is HB hard bean, which is planted at 1200m~1400m altitude.
There are also SH slightly hard beans, which are planted at an altitude of 1200m.
Coffee was really introduced into Guatemala in 1750 by Father Jesuit, where the coffee industry was developed by German colonists at the end of the 19th century. Today, most of the coffee industry's production takes place in the south of the country. Guatemala has seven main coffee producing areas: Antigua (Antigua), Cobain (Coban), Lake Attilan (Atitlan), Vevetnango (Huehuetenango), Farahan Plateau (Fraijanes), Oriente (Oliente) and San Marco (San Mareos).
The Antigua Valley (Antigua Valley) is the oldest and best-known coffee producing area in Guatemala. Volcanoes and extremely shallow groundwater levels form a dry microclimate, characterized by low humidity, adequate sunshine and cool nights. The extremely high content of pumice (pumice) in the soil of Antigua (from the active Fuaigo volcano Fuego) keeps the humidity stable at 65% all the year round, which is very different from other volcanic coffee producing areas, where the humidity usually varies greatly between the dry and wet seasons. Fertile volcanic soil, low humidity, plenty of sunshine and cool nights all make Antigua unique.

Kopi Luwak is produced by the feces of Indonesian coconut cats (a kind of civet) as raw materials, so it is called Kopi Luwak. This kind of animal mainly feeds on coffee beans. After completing fermentation in the coconut cat's stomach, it destroys proteins, produces short peptides and more free amino acids, reduces the bitterness of coffee, and then excretes feces as the main raw material. Because coffee beans cannot be digested, they will be
