Guatemala is the ninth largest coffee-growing region and the coffee produced in the Huehuetenango region is generally considered the best in the country. "Highland" Huehuetenango coffees are grown at an elevation of up to 2,000 masl. The extreme remoteness of Huehuetenango necessitates that all producers mill their own coffees. Fortunately, the area has an almost infinite number of rivers and streams, so that mills can be placed very near to where the coffee is grown. An intensely fragrant single origin coffee that has a sparkling acidity, smooth body, and a sublimely dry finish.

Drip Brewer, French Press, Chemex, Pour Over
HOW TO BREW
ROASTED AT ALTITUDE
All our beans are roasted on-site in the heart of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. At high altitude, the lower roasting temperatures allow the natural sugars in the coffee beans to caramelize slowly. This unique process creates deep, rich flavor profiles and smooth textures — without the bitterness.
RESPONSIBLY SOURCED
At VMCT, we take pride in fostering direct relationships with growers to ensure that every coffee bean and tea leaf we source is responsibly cultivated. We’re committed to ethical, organic, and sustainable practices, understanding that certification standards can vary across the globe. That’s why we go the extra mile to research and verify that our producers meet rigorous organic and bio-dynamic farming standards. For us, it’s not just about great coffee and tea — it’s about honoring the land and the people who bring it to life.
