Organic Guatemala Huehuetenango ASPECAHUE

ASPECAHUE is a smallholder cooperative in Huehuetenango, Guatemala, where family farmers grow coffee on the slopes of the Sierra de los Cuchumatanes using agroecological, shade‑grown practices.

Diverse microclimates, fertile mountain soils, and slow cherry maturation contribute to distinctive, high‑quality cup profiles, supported by native and traditional shade trees such as Chalum, Gravilea, pine, and banana.

Coffee is hand‑harvested at peak ripeness, wet‑processed on each farm, naturally fermented for 2–3 days, washed with fresh spring water, and sun‑dried on patios or nylon beds. Parchment coffee is then delivered to the ASPECAHUE collection center for quality control, storage, and commercialization.
