Outside of Guatemala but looking to buy some Guatemala coffee that hasn’t been processed by The Man (Starbucks)? Check out the new online shop from La Azotea.

La Azotea uses the Arabica variety of coffee, and actually reserves some of the good stuff for local and internet sales, unlike most companies which send the good stuff to their major suppliers and leave the not so tasty coffee for the local crowd. Azotea is an environmentally friendly plantation that uses an organic pest control system, if you are worried about pesticides.

La Azotea is hosting their coffee selling online endeavors through www.AroundAntigua.net. You can currently purchase ground Guatemala coffee as well as whole bean coffee. In addition, they also sell cacao powder and organic chocolate.

Prices are reasonable, considering you are getting premium coffee straight from the source, but if you are shipping to the US you will pay $16.95 in US dollars for your package (provided you purchase under $60 worth of goods). Your shipment should arrive within 1–3 days of purchase.

This is a good way to directly support a local Guatemala business, while at the same time getting some tasty coffee for yourself!
