About Our Guatemalan Coffee Beans

Coffee arrived in Guatemala from the Caribbean around 1700 and local cultivation began shortly after. Commercial export of Guatemalan Coffee Beans did not begin until the mid 1800’s.

The high mountains shrouded in mist on the volcanic slopes of southern Guatemala produces one of the most distinctive and desirable coffees. With its surprisingly deep, rich body and muted overtones, our premium grade Guatemalan 'El Fogon' arabica coffee has a rich body, with spice and chocolate flavor hints and a clean finish.

What You Will Get

All of our coffee is freshly roasted by us at our traditional family-run coffee roastery in rural Kent. You will receive a bag of coffee that is very much a premium product, where the aromas and flavours will be exceptionally delicious, and remarkably better than what you may be used to from the supermarket

27-Jun-09 - Excellent soft rich chocolatey and velvety. It is a great expresso for people who might find some coffee beans to aggressive for an expresso. We absolutely loved this, so much so we bought a kilo of the beans. Please please please keep this one on your books.

03-May-10 - Dissapointed to receive Honduras instead of Guatemalan due to non availability. I usually mix 2/3rds Guatemalan with 1/3rd Sumatran for a really delicious cup of coffee. Coffee quality is superb.
