\ud83c\udf6b\u00a0 A warm Guatemalan coffee with milk-chocolate sweetness, dried fruits and a malty finish<\/p>\n
The Qawale project<\/strong> was launched by Renardo and Jacqueline Ovalle<\/strong>, long-standing producers from Huehuetenango. More than just a coffee, it is a community-driven programme that supports around 400 smallholder farmers<\/strong>, providing them with fairer remuneration, technical training, and logistical solutions for coffee collection.<\/p>\n This initiative has reshaped local livelihoods: many producers now rely solely on coffee thanks to the quality premium<\/strong>, which has funded improvements in harvesting, drying, and infrastructure. The project also fosters forest preservation<\/strong> and promotes sustainable farming practices.<\/p>\n What makes this coffee even more remarkable is its transport method<\/strong>: it crosses the Atlantic by sail cargo ship<\/strong>, through the FCCO by Sail<\/strong> network. This eco-friendly solution drastically reduces carbon emissions, extending the farm\u2019s commitment to sustainability all the way to Europe.<\/p>\n In the cup, Maya<\/strong> reveals a comforting and generous profile: a malted and milk-chocolate base<\/strong>, layered with dried fruits<\/strong> and subtle sweet, vegetal notes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u2728 A truly committed coffee \u2014 from the hills of Huehuetenango<\/strong> to its sail-powered voyage, it stands as a symbol of authenticity and responsibility.<\/p>\n \n Technical sheet<\/strong><\/p>\n Farm \/ Project<\/strong>: Qawale (400 farms \u2013 Renardo & Jacqueline Ovalle)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Region<\/strong>: Huehuetenango, Guatemala<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Altitude<\/strong>: 1,750 m<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Species<\/strong>: Arabica<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Variety(ies)<\/strong>: Blend<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Harvest<\/strong>: November to February<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Harvesting method<\/strong>: Hand-picked<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Process<\/strong>: Washed<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Drying<\/strong>: Patios<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Transport<\/strong>: Sail cargo \u2013 FCCO by Sail<\/p>\n<\/li>\n SCA score<\/strong>: 83.25<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Tasting notes<\/strong>: Herbal, brown sugar, malt, milk chocolate, dried fruits<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SCA score<\/strong>: 83.25<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Tasting notes<\/strong>: Herbal, brown sugar, malt, milk chocolate, dried fruits<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15538,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[139],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-15186","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-coffee","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"taxable","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-variable"},"yoast_head":"\n\n
