why you’ll love our guatemalan coffee from huehuetenango

Bright yet comforting, our Guatemalan coffee from Huehuetenango comes from high-mountain farms where cool nights and rich volcanic soil produce exceptional sweetness. Roasted to a light-to-medium profile, it balances a milk-chocolate body with lively orange-zest brightness and a drizzle of brown-sugar sweetness.

Our Huehuetenango lot is washed-processed, which highlights clarity and citrus while keeping the cup clean and crisp. Harvested between November and March, these beans are primarily Bourbon and Caturra varietals—both known for their layered complexity. The result is a cup that’s bright, clean, and nuanced, perfect for slow mornings or an afternoon pick-me-up.

Whether you’re savoring it black or adding a splash of cream, Happi Guatemala shows why Guatemalan coffee is celebrated worldwide—bright, balanced, and roasted fresh for your best mornings.

happi guatemala FAQs

Is this coffee considered light or medium roast?

Happi Guatemala is roasted in the light-to-medium range—just past first crack—to preserve its orange-zest brightness and milk-chocolate sweetness. A touch of caramelization adds balance, giving you a vibrant, smooth cup.

What flavor notes should I expect?

You’ll taste smooth milk chocolate, a gentle citrus pop, and brown-sugar sweetness. The balance and clarity are what make coffee from Guatemala’s Huehuetenango region so sought after.

What brew methods bring out Happi Guatemala’s best flavors?

Its profile shines in pour-overs (V60, Kalita), Chemex, AeroPress, and drip brewers. For espresso, try a slightly longer extraction to highlight its chocolate sweetness. French-press fans can steep for 4 minutes to bring out its rich, sweet side.

Whole-bean or ground—what are my options?

Both. Choose whole-bean for maximum control or our fresh medium-drip grind for grinder-free convenience. Either way, your coffee is roasted to order and shipped at peak freshness.

What makes Huehuetenango beans special?

High elevations (1,600m+) and dry mountain winds let the cherries ripen slowly, concentrating sugars for a naturally sweet, aromatic cup. It’s one of the standout regions for specialty Guatemalan coffee.
