Antigua Volcanic – Honey Process Guatemala Coffee
Classic Guatemala Terroir with Modern Processing Innovation
Antigua Guatemala represents one of the world’s most recognized coffee regions, famous for its volcanic soil, consistent climate, and exceptional coffee quality. Our Antigua Volcanic coffee captures the essence of this legendary region while showcasing the unique characteristics created through honey processing methods.
The honey processing technique employed for this coffee creates a perfect balance between the clean characteristics of washed coffee and the fruit-forward notes of natural processing. This method preserves some of the cherry’s natural sugars during processing, creating enhanced sweetness and body while maintaining the clarity that defines exceptional Antigua coffee.
