This coffee comes from Huehuetenango, a mountainous coffee-growing region in Guatemala. It is cultivated at approximately 1,350 metres above sea level by four regional farmers.
Growing coffee at this elevation allows the cherries to mature steadily, helping the beans develop greater sweetness, density and flavour complexity.

This Guatemalan coffee is graded SHB EP.
SHB means Strictly Hard Bean. This grading is generally associated with coffee cultivated at higher elevations, where cooler conditions allow the cherries to mature more gradually. This slower development can produce denser beans with greater sweetness and flavour complexity.
EP means European Preparation. It indicates that the green coffee has been carefully prepared and sorted to remove a high proportion of defects before export.
Together, these classifications reflect the care taken in selecting and preparing the coffee.
The journey begins in the mountains of Huehuetenango, where four farmers cultivate Typica, Bourbon, Caturra and Catuaí coffee at approximately 1,350 metres above sea level.
After harvesting, the coffee is washed, carefully prepared and sorted to meet its SHB EP grade. Once it arrives at Chester’s Coffee Roasters, the beans are roasted to reveal their full body, silky texture and vibrant flavour.
The finished cup brings together lively orange, creamy milk chocolate and warm biscuit notes—an expressive Guatemalan coffee with exceptional balance and character.
