The aroma of coffee liberates all forms, minds and borders. Through coffee, the mood leaves the country at any time and lands in a strange country half a world away. Even if separated from the world, but also can share a mood. Antigua was the Spanish colonial capital in 1543. Although this emerald valley has been surrounded by active volcanoes on all sides, layers, deliberately rising and dangerous since ancient times, its vastness, breadth and fertility still lured the Spanish to establish their capital in the precarious cliff valley.

Volcanoes once destroyed this originally prosperous capital in an instant, and all the prosperity and beauty were taken away overnight. After this transformation of the mountain city, more than 200 years of brilliance disappeared, Antigua no longer strutted. Antigua, now plain, is laboriously managed by the remaining Indians. These hard-working Indians became coffee producers, who not only discovered the rich and attractive aroma of Antigua coffee, but also brought it to people all over the world. Antigua coffee now enjoys a reputation as the best coffee in the world, and coffee connoisseurs call it the best and most distinctive coffee in the world. Guatemala coffee has a strong aroma that is enjoyable to smell even if you don't drink it. Antigua coffee has a rich and velvety body, rich and lively aroma, and fine acidity. When the seductive aroma lingers on your tongue, it implies an indescribable mystery. On the first sip, you may feel bland, but as the coffee cools, you'll find it slightly sweet and be pleasantly surprised by its depth.

Antigua coffee is sought after by most coffee lovers because of its distinctive aroma. Because it is planted on the belly of volcanoes, it can retain its own characteristics more than Costa Rica, mainly because it has more geographical and climatic advantages than Costa Rica. Guatemala is located in the tropics, but due to its high altitude, the climate is mild and subtropical. Coffee trees bloom and bear fruit slower than coffee trees in other parts of the world under the influence of this climate. However, the mild climate combined with fertile soil creates an excellent environment for growing coffee.

These Mayan-run coffee industries once made Guatemala's economy prosperous and occupied a dominant position in the national economy. Unfortunately, however, the political situation in Guatemala is not conducive to these coffee growers. High output is usually a sign of overall economic prosperity in a country. However, coffee production in Guatemala has declined relatively, to only 700 kg/ha, compared with 900 kg/ha in El Salvador and a staggering 1700 kg/ha in Costa Rica. Guatemala's coffee export trade is controlled by private companies, but the National Coffee Council controls other sectors of the coffee industry.

Some of Guatemala's finest coffee is currently exported to Japan, where it sells for $3 to $4 a cup. Guatemala's efforts to revitalize its coffee industry by creating a special coffee association and giving maximum support and attention to high-quality coffee will soon bear fruit, not only for coffee growers but also for coffee lovers around the world
