Guatemala - 1 Pound (16oz)

Over the last 70 years, one of Guatemala’s most modest regions welcomed coffee onto its slopes as a means to improve the local economy. Nuevo Oriente might be the country’s youngest coffee-growing area, but nearly every farm, from small producer to large plantation, is now planting coffee in some quantity. Most farms sit at altitudes of 1,300 to 1,600 masl, and plant varieties that often include Bourbon, Catuai, Caturra, and Pache (a dwarf mutation of the Typica variety). The region borders Honduras and El Salvador in the far eastern department of Chiquimula.
