Full-bodied and assertive with hints of roasted nuts, bold notes of bittersweet chocolate, and a caramelly finish.

Tucked deep in the rainforest of northwest Guatemala, the Guaya’b Cooperative is made up of over 300 indigenous Maya-Quiche farming families. Cool wet winds from the Pacific Ocean sustain a lush ecosystem, beautiful mountainside villages, and an ideal setting for the cultivation of great coffee.

Rich volcanic soils, antique varietals, and dense shade come together in the farmers’ hands to produce small volumes of exceptional coffee. Working as family units, the farmers of the Cooperative carefully pick each day’s ripe fruit and process the coffee in small batches on their farms. The result is a classic example of the Huehuetenango appellation: a coffee rich with cherry sweetness, lush floral notes, and a deep wine-like body.
