About Guatemala Coffee

Guatemala is a country of many volcanoes, and coffees grown in volcanic soil tend to be rich and full of character. The country's average altitude is high, which means the trees grow in an environment with a sharp day-night temperature swing. That harsh range lets the cherries ripen longer and more slowly on the tree, producing hard beans with more complete, richer flavors.

Characteristics: Rich wet aroma, good balance, high sweetness, elegant and smooth mouthfeel.

New Oriente Region

Fertile volcanic soil, low humidity, abundant sunshine and cool nights define this region. The valley is ringed by three volcanoes — Agua, Fuego and Acatenango. Volcanic ash from their eruptions leaves the soil rich in minerals, while volcanic pumice retains moisture, offsetting the region's low rainfall; the dense tree shade guards against the occasional frost.

FrontStreet Coffee Recommendation

The winey, dried-fruit intensity of this natural Guatemalan lot has a clear counterpart in FrontStreet Natural Huakui. A traditional natural Sidamo, it brings dried-fruit fermentation aroma, florals, citrus and mango, with honeyed sweetness, a cocoa note and a long, full finish. If you want the same natural-processing depth in a different register, FrontStreet Colombia Sidra is a double anaerobic natural with passion fruit, apricot, dried fruit and grape. Both suit a hand-pour or a cold brew, where the fruit layers stay clean and vivid.
