Introduction to the description of the grinding degree, taste and flavor of coffee from Incht Manor, Guatemala.

In 1982, the leftist guerrillas across the country merged to form the "National Revolutionary Alliance of Guatemala" and armed struggle spread throughout the country. Farmers dissatisfied with the overthrow of the Arbens regime organized a guerrilla group in which more than 100,000 people were killed and millions displaced. In September 1982, the persecution of the local Mayans by the Guatemalan army was close to genocide, and more than 9000 Mayans were killed. Since 1983, persecution on the part of the Government of Guatemala began to decrease and the country began to democratize again. However, the disparity between the rich and the poor has not been solved, and only a small number of people who account for 1% own more than 60% of the arable land and wealth. In 1985, Guatemala reorganized the general election. 2/3 of Guatemala is mountainous and plateau. There are Kuchu Matanes Mountains in the west, Madre Mountains in the south, volcanic belts in the west and south, with more than 30 volcanoes. Tahumurco volcano is 4211 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Central America. Earthquakes are frequent. There are Petten lowlands in the north. There are narrow coastal plains on the Pacific coast. The major cities are mostly distributed in the intermountain basins in the south. The lowland plain in the north is a tropical rain forest, and the volcanoes in the central highlands can reach 4200 meters.

There are few places in the world that offer a variety of high-quality coffee beans, such as those produced in Guatemala. The excellent quality of Guatemalan coffee beans is due to the unique conditions of their producing areas, including different climate change in each region, rich soil formed by volcanoes, abundant natural water resources, high-altitude mountains and shady and moist forests.

Guatemala has seven major coffee producing areas: Antigua,Coban,Atitlan,Huehuetenango,Fraijanes,Oriente and San Marcos.

The coffee beans in each producing area have their own characteristics, and they have won a lot of praise for Guatemala in the international community, especially the perfect coordination of the sour, sweet and mellow texture of Antigua; with a touch of smoke and a little more emphasis on its mystery, you will have a reason not to look for alternatives everywhere after tasting.

Guatemalan coffee beans are mostly cultivated in high-altitude volcanic soils belonging to the most advanced Arabica varieties. Due to the long ripening period, the beans are medium and dense (Guatemalan coffee beans are graded not on the basis of particle size, but on the basis of shortcomings), and the bean color is dark turquoise. The unique sour taste of fragrance, mellow, sweetness and freshness is characterized by the aroma and taste of coffee beans hidden in its sour taste. Therefore, coffee beans with this characteristic can be called first-class coffee beans. The name of the product is suitable for the taste characteristics of baking degree.
