Roast Partner

For establishments serving and selling roasted coffee

We work with coffee shops, cafes, restaurants, bakeries, specialty grocery stores, etc., seeking to showcase specialty Guatemalan coffee. Whether the beans are to be put on the shelf in your own packaging or the hopper as a guest roast, we get the coffee to you so you can sell and serve it to your valued customers.


Coffee Ambassador

For individuals and community groups coordinating a fundraiser

This option allows students, schools, sports teams, churches, and community groups to raise money for an event or activity they choose while promoting the De La Gente mission and taste. You don’t have to buy the coffee upfront; sell Guatemalan specialty coffee from DLG among your network for retail, and then we’ll sell you the coffee at the wholesale price to distribute.


Event Organizer

For companies, organizations, and individuals seeking an ethical touch for their event

Consider incorporating ethically sourced Guatemalan coffee into your next corporate event, team retreat, holiday celebration, wedding, party, etc. Serve DLG specialty coffee to your guests or participants, or gift DLG beans as a token of appreciation for their attendance.

De La Gente Roasts

The DLG signature roast brings out the characteristics and notes for which Guatemalan coffee is renowned.

Our espresso roast is not any darker than medium, just roasted longer at a reduced temperature, allowing for caramelization and a boosted body.

The full city roast is only a tad darker than medium, a little longer for fully caramelized sugars, and accentuates the darker tones.

The dark roast brings out the deep tones of the coffee, muting the acidity somewhat without adding negative carbon-like tones.
