About Guatemalan Huehuetenango Coffee
Located in Western Guatemala bordering Mexico, Huehuetenango is known for producing some of the best coffees in Latin America.
Characteristics of Huehuetenango coffee include chocolatey volume and fruit-forward flavours. We have selected this Waykan offering for its dynamic character: with crisp acidity reminiscent of lemon, grape, or apple, and a balance of toffee and sweet nuts, like almond.
In the Maya Q’qnjobal dialect in the region, “waykan” means “star, or light that shines in the sky at night.” The indigenous population in and around Huehuetenango plays a significant role in coffee production and coffee accounts either directly or indirectly for roughly 80 percent of the local economy
