The Doña Juana Experience: Organic & Fairtrade

Discover this premium organic Fairtrade Guatemalan coffee, a cup that perfectly captures the essence of its origin while supporting ethical, sustainable farming. The Doña Juana blend is a pure, 100% Arabica whole bean masterpiece cultivated in the renowned Chimaltenango region of Guatemala. Grown at extreme altitudes ranging from 1,400 to 2,200 meters, these Caturra and Catuaí varietals thrive in exceptionally fertile volcanic soil to develop a deeply complex, beautifully balanced flavor profile.

Empowering Female Farmers: The “Fuerza de Mujer” Project

Beyond its exceptional taste, every bag of Doña Juana supports a powerful mission. This coffee is sourced from the Asproguate cooperative, a collective made up predominantly of female coffee growers. Through the “Fuerza de Mujer” (Strength of Women) program, your purchase provides these dedicated female coffee producers with vital, ongoing training in finance, health, and nutrition, empowering them to build better futures for their families and communities.

Traditional Swiss High-Altitude Roasting

What truly sets this Guatemalan whole bean coffee apart is our traditional roasting process. Expertly roasted at 1,000 meters above sea level in the mountains of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, the atmospheric pressure allows for lower roasting temperatures. This meticulous method prevents the beans from burning, preserves precious essential oils, and eliminates the harsh acidity found in standard sea-level roasts.

• Aroma & Flavor: Delicate gourmet aromas of vibrant yellow fruits and bright citrus.

• Finish: A satisfying, lingering finish with rich notes of molasses and decadent dark chocolate.

Certified Swiss Bio & Fairtrade Coffee Beans

Drink your daily cup with complete peace of mind. This blend is proudly certified Swiss Bio—an elite standard that goes far beyond basic EU and USDA organic requirements—as well as Fairtrade. Grown without synthetic chemicals or pesticides, it ensures a pure, natural cup that protects both local biodiversity and your health. Your purchase guarantees equitable wages and safe working conditions for the farming communities in the Guatemalan highlands.
