Acatenango

Taste: The coffees from the Antigua region are sweet, smooth, and good for blending or as mild, lower-acid single-origin offerings.

About: Antigua has farms mostly between 1300–1600 meters, many situated on one of the three main volcanoes, called Agua, Fuego, and Acatenango. The volcanic soil helps lock in moisture, as the region is sunnier and tends to get less rainfall than elsewhere.
