Region
Huehuetenango, nestled in Guatemala's highlands next to Mexico, is renowned for its coffee. Thanks to its elevated position and diverse microclimates, the coffee here is prized for its vibrant acidity. Situated in the Los Cuchumatanes mountains, Huehuetenango enjoys protection from frost due to hot winds from Mexico, allowing coffee to thrive up to 2000 meters. With temperatures ranging from 20 to 24 degrees Celsius, and cool breezes moderating conditions, it's an ideal spot for cultivating exceptional coffee.
