Antigua is the oldest and most beautiful city in America. As early as 1543, Antigua was the capital of all colonial times in Central America, and the Government House of Spain was also set up here. After the great earthquake of 1773, the volcano destroyed the once-prosperous capital in an instant, robbing it of all its prosperity and beauty overnight. The whole city of Antigua was destroyed, so the capital was moved to Guatemala City. 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 and strong 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. Antigua coffee has a velvety mellow, rich and lively spice flavor, a richer taste, and it has a fascinating tobacco flavor and fine sour taste. It is a well-deserved boutique coffee.

Bitter and fragrant, good taste

The coffee produced in the highland is mellow and has a good sour taste, which is well received and is the best material for mixed coffee.

Compared with other varieties of coffee in Guatemala, critics prefer this mixed flavor coffee with spicy flavor. The extra hard coffee beans here are a rare good coffee with full grains, delicious taste and balanced acidity. In addition, its giant coffee beans have attracted a lot of attention in Guatemala. Today, although this emerald-like valley has been surrounded by dangerous active volcanoes in all directions, its vast, broad and fertile soil still tempts local coffee growers to cultivate high-quality coffee. On the other hand, they are more willing to be called the Mayan descendants who grow coffee.

This is because Guatemala is located in the tropics, the northern and eastern coastal plains have a tropical rain forest climate, and the southern mountains have a subtropical climate, with two dry and wet seasons a year, with the wet season from May to October and the dry season from November to April of the following year.

The central plateau is also the cultural center of Guatemala, where temperatures are mild all year round between 1300 and 1800 Michael, with daily temperatures between 18 and 28 ℃, and higher levels tend to be colder in January and February. The annual precipitation is 2000-3000 mm in the northeast and 500-1000 mm in the south, while the ecological conditions in the south are very suitable for the growth of high-quality Arabica trees. What is more special is that several active volcanoes are distributed in the southern mountains, and these active volcanoes still erupt irregularly. Although they bring instability to the lives of the local people, their rich volcanic ash soil also benefits the local coffee industry and brings rich substances to coffee cultivation.

And most of the Guatemalan coffee beans belong to the bourbon species of Arabica, so almost all of Guatemala's coffee-growing areas are in the southern mountain forests of the country.
