Acatenango Valley

Chimaltenango, Guatemala.

Deep in the heart of Central America

You will find a magical land, where the majesty of nature is intertwined with the unique flavor of a drink that has conquered the world. This is the story of Acatenango and his coffee.

Acatenango, a towering mountain in Guatemala, stands like a giant guardian over the region. His presence is eternal, a silent witness to the centuries he has witnessed. But what makes this mountain truly special is its companion: the Fuego Volcano, an active colossus that roars and releases its energy in astonishing eruptions.

These eruptions, although unpredictable and dangerous, have created an unmatched gift for the earth: rich, fertile volcanic soil, ideal for growing world-class coffee.

On these slopes, at cloud-defying altitudes, Acatenango coffee flourishes. Here, coffee is grown with patience and passion, where the mountains speak with their unique soils and the volcanoes feed the land with their power.

The region's farmers, custodians of this generous land, harvest the grains with care, selecting only the ripest and most aromatic. Each cup of Acatenango coffee is a story of effort and dedication.

When you taste a cup of Acatenango coffee, you are drinking the magic of this land. Its soft but intense notes transport you to the slopes of the mountains, where the secrets of nature are combined with the art of coffee.

Each sip is a sensory adventure, a connection with the land and its wonders. Acatenango, with its imposing volcanoes and unique soils, has given the world a gift that transcends time and distance.
