Guatemala Ceiba

In early Mayan and Mesoamerican cultures the word „Ceiba“ symbolized the connection between land and sky. Ceiba coffee from Huehuetenango is a community coffee, investing in sustainable sourcing to benefit a large group of producers.

Its cup profile boasts a rich floral and berry aroma and it is full of chocolate, lemon, and raspberry flavors with a creamy body thanks to the specific Huehuetenango terroir.

A Coffee that reminds your favourite café’s chocolate-peanut biscuit with a hint of mid-summer ripe gooseberry straight from grandmother’s garden.
