Behind the Beans
Information about Mochilita from our Producers:
La Mochilita is a community coffee from the region of La Libertad in Huehuetenango (Guatemala). This brings together small farmers cultivating Bourbon and Caturra varieties on this high-altitude plateau. Since the individual lots from these producers are small, the La Mochilita project aims to create unique and consistent community coffee that ensures higher income and outstanding cup quality.
The La Libertad terroir is one of the highest in the Huehuetenango appellation. This, combined with calcareous soil, results in a coffee with complexity, distinct acidity, and a spicy cup profile
