About us
Our Mission
Coffee is the world’s favorite drink. It helps us get started in the morning, push through late nights, and brings us together to share laughs, memories, and our dreams of tomorrow. Our mission can be broken down into the following three parts:
Storytelling though the world’s best coffee
We noticed a disconnect between the consumer and the farmer. Consumers purchase coffee and often forget to learn about the farmers, who play the most important role in developing that delicious roast. Our farmers work tirelessly to ensure the best harvest, strictly using organic practices that protect and regenerate the forest. We believe that all this effort, to deliver you a flavor so profound, should be delivered with stories that help you connect with your farmers at a personal level. As one of our partner farmers, Miguel Medina, said best: "In Guatemala, we treat coffee like wine...". This quality over quantity approach stems from the commitment to prserve the soil by not using This is why
Inspire your next adventure
Before any kind of adventure, the tuguava team loves to start it with a delicious brew. The adventure might be outside, exploring the beauty nature inspires us with everyday. The adventure might be inside, as you dive deeper into your mind while reading a great book. Regardless of the type of adventure you embark on, we want to inspire you on the next journey you choose. Or more interestingly, inspire you on the next journey that chooses you.
Turn coffee into clean water
Water is life. To many of us, clean water is a critical commodity that isn’t that hard to find. However, in Guatemala, access to clean water is not available to everyone, making their relationship with water unsafe. This is not acceptable. Therefore, Tuguava has partnered with local water filter company EcoFiltro Guatemala, a local legend who pioneered water filtration with clay and natural ingredients, to provide free filters to local families. Through this partnership, we are committed to contribute a percentage of each coffee bag we sell towards the purchase of new filters and replacements for those already gifted. We turn coffee into clean water, that is our super power.
We turn coffee into clean water. That is our superpower.
