Santa Ana

Finca Santa Ana has been a family owned farm since the 19th century and has been run with focus on sustainability and quality for decades. The coffee is grown at about 1770 msl. between the Tequamburro and Pacaya volcanoes. Therefore the soil is extremely rich in nutrients and minerals due to the volcanic ashes mixed with virgin soil.

Finca Santa Ana participated in the 2010 Guatemala Cup of Excellence with a small lot of coffee and came in 4th place. Therefore we are extremely happy to be able to offer coffee from this farm this year.
