The Famous Guatemala Antigua Coffee
In the high altitudes of Guatemala lies the origin of Guatemala Antigua Coffee. This perfectly situated growing land is 3000 feet above sea level and located between three volcanoes. These volcanoes have indirectly contributed to the minerals and nutrients of the land around them, making them the ideal place to cultivate coffee plants. The taste of the coffee is smooth, mild and the flavor is balanced by the chocolaty touch present in the coffee. Some of the coffee lovers find the bitterness of this coffee a bit too high but most of them are fascinated by the fragrance of cocoa in it.
The coffee plants are grown in shades on high altitude in the Guatemalan Highlands. Large trees provide shade to the coffee plants and prolong the period of growth. The plants will slowly mature underneath the natural shade and it adds flavor and richness to the coffee beans produced. The climate greatly affects the harvesting and production as the harvesters are still implementing traditional farming methods. The price of this coffee fluctuates depending on the weather and quality of the beans. Farmers are dedicated and they will not compromise their quality for quantity.
After hand picking out the matured beans from the estates, they are roasted to full flavor perfection according to the right temperature for different roasts. Roasted coffee is available in medium to dark roasts. The processes of making coffee are carefully controlled in order to produce high graded beans and people in Guatemala are still dedicated to their traditional ways to produce coffee. Due to superb quality control, Guatemala Antigua Coffee is considered as very rare in the market because their production is limited.
In a nutshell, the traditional farming methods, ideal climate and location, as well as fertile soil have contributed to the making of the famous Guatemala Antigua Coffee. It has been acclaimed by large prominent companies and Starbucks is one of them. Give this coffee a try, and let the strong, bold flavor surprise your taste buds!
