GUATEMALAN LA COLMENITA COFFEE
Driving the narrow mountain road up the impossibly steep switchbacks to Finca La Colmenita, or "The Beehive", the views are striking. Far below, the deep valleys of San Pedro Necta stretch. La Colmenita is nearly at the top, with a high 1850 to 2000 MASL farm. It's in the clouds a lot of the time.
GUATEMALAN SAN JUAN BUENA COFFEE
Adolfo Hernandez and Adolfito Hernandex Jr have been in the coffee business since 1995 with a small farm called San Juan Buena Vista, located in Alotenango in the region of Antigua Guatemala.
