Ogablanca Coffee Beans

Do you like the unique smoky flavor of Guatemalan coffee beans? High altitude produces great beans—in fact, according to cupping competition results, extremely hard beans grown at high altitudes often deliver excellent flavors and frequently win awards. The Huehuetenango region in Guatemala, which grows coffee up to elevations of over 2,000 meters and is unaffected by frost damage, stands out remarkably. Today we’re introducing a highly acclaimed coffee bean.

These Ogablanca Cooperative coffee beans hold Fair Trade certification, UTZ certification, as well as Starbucks’ CAFE Practices certification—clear indicators of their premium quality.

The Ogablanca Cooperative is located in Huehuetenango, one of Guatemala’s renowned main coffee-growing regions. Established in 1969, it has 45 members, farms an area of 1.54 square kilometers, and produces about 3,300 bags of green coffee beans annually. Despite the small production volume, the flavor is outstanding.
