ABOUT THE COFFEE / REGION
Firmin Aguilar Escalante owns Finca El Recuerdo in Cuilco in Huehuetenango. He hopes to
continue to improve the quality of his coffee by experimenting with new hybrids. The farm
focuses on maintaining the health of the land/plants and hopes to continue to increase
productivity.
Huehuetenango is located in Western Guatemala bordering Mexico. It is extremely diverse
and known for producing some of the best coffees in Latin America due to its climate,
altitude, water sources, and traditional varieties. A range of offerings come out of
Huehuetenango, including chocolatey volume offerings and fruit-forward microlots.
Smallholder farmers make up the vast majority of Guatemala's coffee sector, and our
green buyers are constantly searching for exceptional small lots of farm-specific coffees to
purchase. These are differentiated on our offerings list as having both the highest quality
and achieving the producers the highest prices.
FAQ

Can I pickup my coffee?

Mon - Sat 7:30am-2:30pm
Sundays and Public Holidays access are closed
Walk through "Little Things Cafe" you will find your order to the right as you enter the roastery gates on a black steel shelf with your name/# stickered on your parcel.
Place your order, then give us some time to roast and pack for you (usually less than two business days).
Once received ready for pickup notification, come in, check in, and say hi to either Matty or Po.
Can you grind my coffee?
Sorry, we sell whole beans only.
The reason being is that pre-grinding freshly roasted coffee means that it affects the integrity of the coffee and this makes the coffee expire a lot faster. It's like having artisan bread being pre-sliced or a piece of fruit being left out in the sun!
