Los Cedros
de Palmira

Grown by the Palacios family — Haller Palacios and Mirna Villatoro — in Huehuetenango, Guatemala’s highest and driest coffee region. A limited-edition single-estate lot of Pacamara and Maragogype grown at 1,740m in limestone soil, hand-picked at peak ripeness and washed.

How this coffee is made
Sustainably at the farm

Grown under the shade of Chalum, Gravilea and cedar trees — the cedros the farm is named after — and hand-picked at peak ripeness between January and April.

Washed & dried

Cherries are floated to remove defects, fermented for 24–40 hours depending on the weather, then dried slowly on raised beds and in the greenhouse — up to 20 days in the cloudy months.

Roasted in London

We roast small-batches every week on a Loring roaster in East London.

Your questions,
answered

What are Pacamara and Maragogype?
Two of the largest coffee bean varieties in the world — Maragogype is nicknamed the "elephant bean". Both are prized for their distinctive cup character and are rarely grown at scale.
Where is Huehuetenango?
Pronounced "whe-whe-tenango" — Guatemala's highest and driest coffee region, up against the Mexican border. It's one of only three regions in the country without volcanic soil: coffee here grows in limestone, which gives the cup its distinctive bright acidity. It's also one of the most remote — historically farmers carried their coffee out by oxen or on their backs.
What makes this limited edition?
This is a single-estate lot from the Palacios family's farm in Huehuetenango, grown at 1,740m. Quantities are small — when it's gone, it's gone.
How are you different?
We source directly in Guatemala — no brokers, no middlemen — and roast weekly in East London. We're a family business with 150 years of coffee in our blood.

Free UK delivery over £45. Standard from £4.26 (Royal Mail Tracked 48, 1–3 working days). Express £5.12. We roast and dispatch every Tuesday.
