The region, dominated by the Agua, Acatenango, and Fuego volcanoes, benefits from occasional mineral-rich ash deposits, which enhance the soil's fertility.
This fully washed coffee features a complex profile with notes of peach, peanut brittle, and milk chocolate custard, with a floral aroma and vibrant acidity. The coffee undergoes natural fermentation in water tanks and is dried using mechanical rotary dryers.

El Arco Coffee is unique because it is grown in the mineral-rich volcanic landscape of the Antigua region in Guatemala. This area, with its Agua, Acatenango, and Fuego volcanoes, offers fertile soil and ideal growing conditions. The volcanic landscape retains moisture, which is crucial given the region's low rainfall .
The coffee is produced by 50 dedicated small-scale farmers who use sustainable farming techniques. They hand-pick the ripest cherries and use shade trees to protect the plants and maintain a healthy environment. Their processing, including natural fermentation and mechanical drying, ensures high-quality coffee beans with a clean, vibrant flavour. This dedication to sustainability and quality makes this coffee a top choice for coffee roasters.
