About This Coffee
The Region
Finca La Hermosa is located in Acatenango, Chimaltenango which is a valley located about 80km from Guatemala City, surrounded by mountains and volcanoes. The weather variables of this region and the characteristics of the soil have a unique effect on the balance of the chemical components within the beans. This unique
Acatenango is definitely a blessed region, home to great farms, tasteful coffees and dedicated coffee growers who love and enjoy what they do. No wonder why it is one of the only two denominations of origin in Guatemala that have been recognized to protect outstanding coffee regions.
The farm is divided in thirteen plots in full production, featuring traditional varieties as pache, typica, caturra, red, yellow & pink bourbon and catuai, as well as pacamara and gesha.
The Process
The commitment to processing excellence at finca La Hermosa begins with harvest. Cherries are hand picked based on Brix measurements of 21°. All coffee is processed on the day it is picked to avoid uncontrolled fermentation. After de-pulping and fermentation, the coffee is thoroughly washed. Drying is carried out on cement tiled patios followed by raised beds. The drying process takes 10-15 days on average.
