Cozy and comforting, we’re thrilled to feature another offering from Guatemala. Distinct notes of black cherry and dark chocolate are perfectly balanced with a touch of hazelnut, adding a smooth, satisfying finish to each sip.

After a childhood spent on his father’s coffee farm in La Libertad, Huehuetenango, Arcenio Villatoro carried the dream of owning his own farm. In 2007, he purchased land in the town of Cuilco and began to produce his own coffee there with the help of his wife and three children. Sharing wet mill equipment and drying patios allows Arcenio and his brothers Edwin and Wilmer, who own adjacent fields, to keep costs down and make good use of their resources. With many years of experience in coffee, the Villatoro family continues to refine their harvesting and processing methods and experiment with new varietals.
