Guatemala Waykan

from $19.00

Green Apple, Juicy, Toffee

Crisp and smooth apple flavors balanced against chocolate and a toffee sweetness. An unchallenging coffee perfectly suited for the hard to please, and a pristine example of the dynamic character of coffees from Huehuetenango, with their 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 large role in the coffee production here, and coffee accounts either directly or indirectly for roughly 80 percent of the local economy.

Available in 12oz and 1kg Bags

Washed Process

Roast Level: Medium

Variety: Bourbon, Caturra, Catimor, Maragogype, Pache

Growing Altitude: 1600–1800 masl
