Our Story

Coffee farm in Central America

Tz'ikin Cafe brings the rich coffee traditions of El Salvador and Guatemala to Montgomery County, MD. Our name, derived from the Mayan word for "bird," symbolizes our commitment to freedom, sustainability, and connection to nature.

We source our beans directly from small-scale farmers in El Salvador and Guatemala, ensuring fair compensation and sustainable farming practices while celebrating the unique flavors of both countries.
