Description
The Huehuetenango region is famous for their high quality coffees. The various farms this lot comes from process their coffees in a washed method, then the coffee is sun dried on patios. On the farm plants like Gravilea, Chalun and fruit trees, can be found next to the coffee trees providing the needed shade. The region has an average rainfall of 2.000ml per year and most coffee is grown on clay soil.
About the farm
The Primavera Family lot was created from 10-15 producers that are improving their quality every year, but this year were not strong enough to be sold as a single estate coffee. We decided to purchase the coffee in order to offer it to you as a great entree level brew. And also to give the farmers the opportunity to use the extra income they receive from selling at a higher price to reinvest in their farm and wet mills.
