Guatemala Washed Huehuetenango
Peanut brittle, blackberry jam, and demerara sugar. This washed coffee from Guatemala offers very approachable acidity and has a little extra sweetness that makes this a very well rounded daily coffee.
Making espresso or French press? Choose whole bean and grind right before you brew. Ground for drip is too coarse for espresso and too fine for French press.

ABOUT THIS COFFEE
What it tastes like
Peanut brittle, blackberry jam and demerara sugar. This washed Guatemala has gentle, approachable acidity and a little extra sweetness, which makes it an easy, well-rounded daily coffee. It shines as a pour over, and it’s just as good in a drip machine or French press.
Where it comes from
This coffee comes from CODECH (Coordinator of Organizations for the Development of Concepción Huista) in Concepción Huista, in Guatemala’s Huehuetenango region. Founded in 1998, CODECH brings together 10 member organizations and 476 members.
Many of Guatemala’s coffee farmers are smallholders and Indigenous producers who have organized into democratically run cooperatives. That gives them more say in how their coffee is sold, and many share a deep connection to caring for the land.
The people behind it
CODECH is organic-certified, both to protect the land and to stay independent from large fertilizer companies and swings in oil prices. Its general manager, Gregorio, is helping members renovate their farms and believes they could grow about three times as much coffee.
The group also puts a strong focus on women’s participation in work and community life. Its programs include:
Organic and general farming workshops
Training on selling coffee nationally and internationally
Women’s workshops, women’s rights and gender equity
Leadership and self-esteem programs
Community advocacy
Teacher training, plus classes by mail and radio
Medical care and household development

Why roasted to order tastes better
Most grocery store coffee was roasted weeks or months before it hit the shelf. By the time you open it, the aromatics that make coffee taste sweet and complex are mostly gone.
We don't roast ahead. Your bag is roasted after you order, in a small batch, and shipped on our next roast day, every Wednesday and Thursday. You get it while it's at its best.
Fresher coffee means more sweetness, more flavor and less of that flat, bitter taste.
Everything you want in a great everyday coffee, without the guesswork.
Roasted Fresh to Order
Roasted after you order and shipped at peak freshness for a more vibrant, flavorful cup.
Works with Your Brew Method
Drip, pour-over, French press, espresso or cold brew. No special equipment required.
Consistent From Bag to Bag
Repeatable roast profiles mean the coffee you love today is the coffee you'll get next time.
Responsibly Sourced
Sourced through trusted partners focused on quality and long-term producer relationships.
Trusted by Thousands
Served in our cafés and brewed in homes, offices and coffee shops every day.
From our roaster to your cup

What makes Tapestry coffee taste better?
Freshness and care. We roast in small batches after you order, so your coffee isn't sitting in a warehouse losing flavor. And we're coffee shop owners, so every coffee has to hold up behind our own bar first.
Is it actually fresh?
This coffee is roasted after you place your order and shipped at peak freshness. We do not ship old inventory or warehouse coffee, so your bag arrives fresh and ready to brew.
Whole bean or ground?
Both. Choose whole bean if you have a grinder (it stays fresh longest), or ground for drip if you don't.
How should I brew it?
Check Recommended brewing methods in the product details above for what we like best with this coffee. Our brew guide on this page has starting ratios for espresso, drip, French press and cold brew.
What if I don't love it?
Don't love it? We'll make it right. Just reach out and we'll take care of you.
How fast will it get to me?
We roast and ship every Wednesday and Thursday. Most orders arrive 1–3 business days after that. Orders $35+ ship free.
Can I subscribe?
Many of our coffees can be delivered on a regular schedule. If you see a subscribe option above the Add to cart button, this coffee is one of them. Subscriptions can be changed or canceled any time.
