Asodiett is an association of coffee producers from Aldea Mash, Todos Santos, Huehuetenango. The cooperative is formed by 30 coffee producing families growing coffee from 1,500 to 1,800 meters above sea level. Each producer manages the washing of their coffee in a traditional washing tank. The cherries are depulped and fermented in water for approximately 24 hours before being manually washed and moved to dry on patios for 10 to 12 days. Many of the families also produce textiles in addition to coffee in order to supplement household income. The cooperative was an initiative of the community leader, founder and current president of the association, Macario Calmo. The idea to organize came from the need for financial aid for the community to continue the production of coffee and to provide for the other families in the town. Together they have achieved international recognition for consistency and quality while continuing to receive support from different organizations to improve their quality.
