  •  "Huehuetenango" is quite fun to say. It also produces quite fun coffee. This region of western Guatemala bordering Mexico is known throughout the coffee world for an ideal blend of climate, altitude, and water. You've likely had coffee from this region before. Huehuetenango produces a lot of coffee common in blends as well as standalone single origins! 

    This particular lot comes from the Quetzal Program - named after the national bird of Guatemala. Quetzal provides high prices and higher volume purchases to the contributing smallholders.
