Guatemala San Lorenzo

Luis "Wicho" Valdés' coffee grows at an altitude of 1,400 to 1,500 meters in the hills of Alta Verapaz near the city of Cobán in the heart of Guatemala. Due to the very rainy climate there, the coffee from the Valdés farms is dried on African beds and with machines. The entire property is terraced to protect against erosion during the heavy summer rains. Wicho Valdés is already the third generation to grow coffee on the two fincas Santa Isabel and San Lorenzo.

A real classic in our range is definitely the Guatemala San Lorenzo. The coffee comes from the Finca San Lorenzo in the Alta Verapaz region, Santa Rosa. This unique coffee is known for its complex taste experience.

Milk chocolate taste is rounded off by fruity notes of dried apricots.

Guatemala is generally known as the land of trees. But the best coffee is also associated with its country of origin, Guatemala. The special topographical location and climatic conditions produce extremely high-quality coffee beans.

Thanks to the many trees that surround the coffee plantations. The trees provide shade and also ensure that the very fertile soil offers particularly good conditions for growing coffee. The plants therefore have more time to grow, which has a positive effect on the taste.
