Behind the Beans
Temple of the Great Jaguar is named after Tikal temple in Guatemala.
Juan Hernandez Aguilar is a small indigenous Mayan producer who speaks Mam.
Cultivated in the Sierra de Los Cuchumatanes mountains of Huehuetenango, this micro-lot from Juan is located in a sector of Rio Ocho that he refers to as Q’Ail.
Juan is committed to organic farming practices, but does not have organic certification due to the significant financial investment required for certification.
Unique to their growing area, Juan de-pulps the coffee cherry in his parcels and then transports it to his home to complete the wet mill process. He then dries his coffee on black nylon and concrete patios in full sun.

What do I need to know about shipping chocolate?
Shipping chocolate is a delicate adventure - especially in summer.
Our chocolate is especially vulnerable to the effects of temperature fluctuation because we avoid the use of all stabilizers, preservatives, and fillers.
Our summer shipping protocol is currently in place:
- We only ship chocolate on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Orders placed between Thursday and Sunday will ship the following Monday.
- We occasionally make the tough call to postpone shipping on hot days. We will always update you accordingly.
- We recommend all chocolate orders are sent by USPS Priority Mail Express.
- We cannot offer refunds on chocolate shipped during the summer using USPS Ground or USPS Priority Shipping.
- While we can only offer refunds to customers who have selected USPS Priority Mail Express shipping for their chocolate, please contact us if you are unhappy in any way with your order and we’ll do what we can to make it right.
See our FAQ page for more details on chocolate and temperature!

I live in Tennessee and whenever I travel to KC, I stop in and pick up a few bags, hang out and have a cup and do some emails. Get the “Milk” roast, it’s the best coffee I’ve ever had.
