This flavorful and extremely fragrant micro lot was produced by Jacinto Ramirez, who is a 4th generation coffee grower, born and raised in Michicoy, a town in San Pedro Necta, Huehuetenango. His farm is part of a larger network of farms owned and operated by his relatives. Coffee on his farm is intercropped with chalum trees that provide shade and also the falling leaves of these trees provide natural fertilizer for growing coffee

Cherry is selectively handpicked and pulped on the farm’s drum pulper. Coffee is fermented in fermentation tanks for 30 hours and then washed in clean water. Wet parchment is laid on patios to sundry. They rake parchment frequently to ensure even drying. It takes approximately 5 to 8 days for parchment to dry. Once dry, parchment is bagged and taken to a warehouse in Huehuetenango City where the low humidity is ideal for storing and resting parchment. Parchments rests for approximately 2 months before being milled and prepared for export
