Quiché is one of Guatemala’s largest coffee departments, spanning from Chimaltenango’s volcanic range all the way north to the Mexico border. While the northern half of Quiché is dominated by tropical lowlands, the department’s southern regions are mountainous, traversed by the Sierra de los Cuchumatanes and Sierra de Chuacús ranges, which create a variety of high elevation micro-terroirs very well suited to coffee. Quiché is named for the K’iche’ people, one of Guatemala’s largest pre-Columbian indigenous groups. The Quiché department itself is over 65% K’iche’ by population.

This coffee was grown and harvested by organic certified smallholder farmers from Chuaquenun community near the municipality of Joyabaj  (pronounced ho-yah-bach”) in southern Quiché, and processed centrally at an experimental wet mill set up in the city center. The wet mill was newly constructed this past harvest by a specialty exporter organization, Federación Comercializadora de Café Especial de Guatemala (FECCEG), which represents a number of different smallholder farmer associations across Guatemala. This is the first time that central processing infrastructure has been available to the greater Joyabaj communities, and represents a new investment by FECCEG in the area.
