I have just added another new coffee to the web store. This one is a Fair Trade certified coffee from Guatemala, from the Huehuetenango region. This Fair Trade Guatemala Huehuetenango coffee has a nice balanced acidity and mouthfeel. The coffee has some mellow milk chocolate notes and a bit of orange flavors as well. The broker provided the following information:
- “ASOBAGRI” or The Asociacion Barillense de Agricultores was founded in 1989 by 20 Mayan coffee and cardamom farmers. It currently has more than 1,200 cooperative members. The members of ASOBAGRI are from approximately 30 small villages in the Huehuetenango region, surrounded by the Cuchumantanes Mountains and the Maxbal Forest Reserve. This coffee is shade grown under guava, plantain and banana trees. ASOBAGRI promotes sustainable agriculture by training its farmers in organic production methods and they continue to reinvest in their infrastructure while exploring new quality control measures through financing and operating their own warehouses and drying patios.
