Finca La Maravilla is a farm located high in the mountains of the Huehuetenango region in Guatemala. Its history began in 1997, when Mauricio Rosales and his father Guillermo bought a small plot of land. Initially, the farm could only be reached on foot or by horse. Today, thanks to Mauricio's years of work, a road leads to it, and the farm itself has become a place of exceptional quality coffee production.
Despite the difficult terrain and limited access to infrastructure, Mauricio is constantly developing production methods. A wet processing station with fermentation tanks, concrete patios, and raised coffee drying tables has been built on the farm. His approach is based on attention to every stage of the process, but also to the people who work alongside him. In 2020, Finca La Maravilla was recognized in the prestigious Cup of Excellence competition.
Our Geisha comes from plantations located at altitudes of 1500 to 1850 m above sea level and has undergone wet processing, which allows the elegance and complexity characteristic of this variety to be showcased.
The cup is dominated by delicate, floral aromas of jasmine, accompanied by notes of Earl Grey tea and juicy peach. The whole creates a clean, subtle, and tea-like profile with a pleasant sweetness.
