FrontStreet Coffee - Introduction to Guatemala Antigua Coffee

Guatemala has an average high altitude, with coffee growing zones distributed above 1,500 meters, between 14 and 16 degrees north latitude. Guatemala belongs to high-altitude volcanic terrain, and these volcanoes are precisely the most ideal places for cultivating coffee.

A cup of Guatemala's Antigua coffee seems to let us see the mysterious Mayans who suddenly disappeared multiplying on ancient lands. History has wiped away their existence, and history has made them eternal.

Guatemala's fertile volcanic soil has nurtured specialty coffee beans with unique flavors: Antigua coffee. The charm of Antigua lies in its balanced and refreshing fruit acidity, rich spice flavors, and unique smoky taste, telling us about the bleak history of Guatemala's Antigua.

Antigua Island is located in the West Indies. Antigua: in Spanish, Antigua means "ancient, old." Antigua City was the capital during the Spanish colonial period in 1543.

Antigua Island is a famous coffee-producing region, with rich volcanic soil, low humidity, strong sunlight, and cool evening winds being the characteristics of the Antigua region. There are three spectacular active volcanoes there, occasionally adding hazy volcanic ash dust, providing more nitrogen to the already fertile land, and sufficient rainfall and sunshine make this place more suitable for growing coffee.

The reason why Antigua's coffee is sought after by the majority of coffee lovers is simply because of its distinctive aroma. Guatemala's coffee has rich regional flavors, which should be related to the water and soil of Guatemala's eight major producing regions. Few places in the world can provide various high-quality coffee beans like those produced in Guatemala.

Guatemala's coffee all presents a gentle and mellow overall texture, with elegant aroma, and carries a special and pleasant acidity similar to fruit acidity, becoming the aristocrat among coffees. Among them, Antigua Classic Coffee is highly recommended by global coffee connoisseurs. Not only does it have smooth bean surfaces, high hardness, and good quality, but it also has a perfect combination of richness, acidity, and sweetness, plus a hint of smoky flavor, further emphasizing its depth and mystery.

Guatemala Antigua is famous for its elegant and lively acidity, clean without impurities, distinct layers, as well as green apple acidity, berry aroma, jasmine fragrance, orange peel aroma, green pepper aroma, fruity sweet and sour sensation, chocolate sweet aroma, and even a smoky aftertaste. It contains a slight charcoal-roasted taste amidst the mellow richness, just like the sweetness of chocolate mixed with smoke. Due to this unique charcoal-roasted fragrance, Antigua coffee is also known as "cigarette coffee."
