We also proudly feature Single Origin Guatemalan coffee, grown in the volcanic soils surrounding Lake Atitlán. These high-quality Arabica beans offer complex flavor profiles with notes of chocolate, fruit, and spice. Our coffee is sourced directly from small farmers, with no glyphosate or harmful chemicals.

Textile Tours Guatemala
Guatemala’s San Juan La Laguna or San Pedro La Laguna Lake Atitlan are the locations for Textile Tours.
The Highlands of Guatemala’s San Juan La Laguna are like stepping back in time, with centuries of history and a laid-back way of life. Surrounded by breathtaking mountains, three menacing volcanoes, a gorgeous lake, and a striking green landscape covered in vibrant tropical flora. Guatemala Textile Weaving Workshops offer a real-world introduction to Mayan weaving.
Mayan ceremonial cacao was a central part of Mayan culture and society, and was used in religious ceremonies and as a form of currency.
Cacao was considered a luxury item and was highly valued by the Mayans.
The beans were fermented, roasted, and ground into a paste, which was then mixed with water and spices to make a bitter chocolate beverage.
This drink was believed to have spiritual and medicinal properties and was consumed during important ceremonies and rituals.
