This is due to the country's wide variety of microclimates and soils. Its main producing areas are: Huehuetenango, Cobán, Acatenango, Nuevo Oriente, Fraijanes, Atitlán, Antigua. Guatemala SHB Primavera decaffeinated coffee is grown in Huehuetenango. The coffee is picked by hand to select the right moment, when the cherry is neither too green nor too ripe. SHB (Strictly Hard Bean), refers to the classification of coffee. It means “Strictly Hard”, and it is cultivated from 1300 meters of altitude. Swisswater® is a method of decaffeinating coffee based on the use of water, which causes the beans to “sweat” the caffeine. It is the most respectful system with the organoleptic qualities of coffee (flavor and aroma) since it does not modify them. The caffeine that is extracted in the process is used by other industries, thus being a sustainable practice.
