This coffee is from a region with some of the highest peaks of Guatemala. Having been to the San Marcos region, it is something special all its own. I remember seeing the fog roll in across what I can only say reminded me of Montana sagebrush in the mountains on a fall day (not your typical Latin American climate). The unique elevation and rugged terrain give this coffee a taste all its own! This is a unique and delicious coffee- worth a try!
