Huehuetenango means ‘Place of the Ancients’ in Nahuatl, and is pronounced way-way-tenango. The Aztecan ruins of Zaculeu lead the way to coffee farms placed within the Cuchumatanes Mountains.
The microclimate produced at this high altitude, over 1,600m, and limestone soil gives this premium coffee a unique fruity taste and juicy acidity.
The flavours that emerge with a light medium roast are buttery caramel and orange coupled with a touch of chocolate and almond, which pairs perfectly with a buttery shortbread from The Northumbrian Bakehouse. You can find the full range here- The Northumbrian Bakehouse.
