Curator's Notes
Twinkle, twinkle little Waykan, whose name means "star" in the local, Mayan-derived language. One sip, and our dreams came true in the soft, lemon meringue flavors of this juicy cup, a blend of small, high-grown lots from regional farms. When you wish upon a coffee...
Roaster's Notes
Guatemala Waykan is a pristine example of the dynamic character of coffees from Huehuetenango, with their crisp acidity reminiscent of lemon, grape, or apple, and a balance of toffee and sweet nuts, like almond. In the Maya Q’qnjobal dialect in the region, “waykan” means "light that shines in the sky at night.” The indigenous population in and around Huehuetenango plays a large role in the coffee production here, and coffee accounts either directly or indirectly for roughly 80 percent of the local economy.
