We're excited to bring you another wonderful Guatemala offering from our long-time friends at Los Volcanes! Earlier this year, our QC team sampled multiple different offerings from Guatemala, and this one immediately piqued our interest. After a couple months of patiently waiting, this gem from Finca Relampago has arrived and we can't wait to share it with y'all.
Finca Relámpago lies near the historic town of Ciudad Vieja, located on the lower slopes of Volcán de Agua.
This region has long been recognized as one of Guatemala’s most iconic coffee-growing areas, prized for its high elevation, rich volcanic soil, and cool mountain climate. Once the original capital of colonial Guatemala, Ciudad Vieja has centuries of agricultural tradition embedded in its valleys and ridges. Today, it remains a dynamic hub of smallholder farming, artisanal production, and coffee cultivation.
In 2024, Los Volcanes Coffee acquired Finca Relámpago with a clear mission: to create a dedicated space for research, experimentation, and advancement in coffee processing.
