Coffee, its terroir, and its flavor profile
Discover the Guatemala Huehuetenango whole bean coffee from Lugat, a 100% pure origin Arabica coffee, carefully roasted in France. Derived from the Caturra and Bourbon varieties, it is grown between 1,400 and 1,850 meters in altitude by a collective of producers from Todos Santos, in the heart of one of Guatemala’s emblematic coffee regions.
In the west of the country, Huehuetenango benefits from a unique terroir, on the foothills of the Sierra de Los Cuchumatanes. Warm, dry winds from the Tehuantepec plain meet the cool mountain air, creating a microclimate favorable to high-altitude coffee cultivation.
In the cup, this coffee reveals a gentle attack with notes of dark chocolate, followed by a round body with aromas of candied orange. The tasting continues with a soft finish evoking hazelnut, for a rich and balanced profile.
A coffee supported by the Todos Santos producers' collective
In Todos Santos, coffee is crafted by many hands. The story of the collective dates back to 1995, when ten producers decided to come together to create ASODIETT. Since then, families have been cultivating their coffee on small farms scattered around Todos Santos and Tuiboch, on the slopes of the Sierra de los Cuchumatanes.
Their expertise doesn’t stop at the harvest. Close to the plots, the producers themselves carry out the initial processing steps, before drying the coffee while still encased in its parchment on small patios or on the roofs of houses. In the mountains of Huehuetenango, where rain can persist throughout the harvest season, this step requires constant attention.
Once dried, the coffee leaves the heights of Todos Santos to reach Antigua, where its final preparation takes place. This journey reflects a collective effort, from the cherries picked in the mountains to the coffee’s final preparation.

Lugat
The type of roast will affect the balance of flavours (bitterness, acidity, sweetness, etc.) and reveal the aromas of the terroir to a greater or lesser extent.
The more the coffee is roasted the more its colour will change (from light to dark). The darker the roast, the more the aromatic notes are lost in favour of the roasting notes.
All our coffees have been placed in a colorimeter by our experts in order to compare the roast intensity.
The aromatic groups describe the tasting notes of your cup (hazelnut, chocolate, peach, white flowers, etc.).
If you don't know what your coffee profile is yet, we advise you to start with the most appreciated aromatic groups: rich & sweet or woody.
Please Note: this is not a flavoured coffee but aromatic notes noticed upon tasting.
The dominant aromatic group represents the most perceptible notes and the secondary group, the more subtle notes present in the cup.
Traditional Coffees (classic and superior) are the most common in the various distribution channels.
Specialty Coffees (rated 80-100) are among the best coffees in the world and represent less than 10% of world production. These are flawless coffees that offer unique tasting notes from one terroir (or even plot) to another.
Attributed by “Q Graders”, a coffee's /100 score is determined by the quality of the beans and the result in the cup. It is advisable to progressively move towards coffees with higher scores.
