THE ORIGIN STORY

The Quetzal (the national bird of Guatemala) Program was born after the creation of “Regional Select - Waykan”, which was our way of highlighting the distinct regional differences we saw coming out of Guatemala. We heard from producers that they wanted to sell us more of their coffee, and Quetzal as a program allows us to buy more and pay more along the larger quality spectrum for high quality coffees from these hardworking men and women in Guatemala.

High-grown, hard-bean coffees from Guatemala are a staple offering for us as they are for many coffee roasters: The crisp acidity, full body, and toffee sweetness found in these coffees make them valuable as approachable and affordable single-origin brews, or as backbone blend components that layer nicely with more complex or fruitier complements.
