Cloud full name is Finca Las Nubes, translated into English is Small farm in the clouds. It is true that the coffee on this estate is produced in the clouds. Compared with the old manor which has been in the country for more than a hundred years, she is young, only nearly 30 years old! The first National CoE Competition in Guatemala in 2001 changed the fate of Yunwu Manor and let coffee people all over the world know that there is such excellent coffee in the new oriental area of Guatemala!

Back to Yunwu Manor, the Spanish language is Finca Las Nubes, which is located in the Aldea La Granadilla, Esquipulas mountains of Guatemala. The administrative area belongs to Chiquimula, about 240km west of the capital city of Guatemala. According to the classification of the producing areas of the Anna Coffee Association, it belongs to the New Oriental District, not far from Honduras. The manor is as high as 1500 meters above sea level, and there are many tall cypresses around it, which is also the habitat of many rare birds. Due to the high altitude in the New Oriental area, coupled with the great temperature difference, coffee cherries grow very slowly, forming her unique rich chocolate and citrus berry sweetness, which is the main factor that she can get a high score of 96 points in the first international review and is regarded as the best coffee in Guatemala in 2001!

At the beginning of the first CoE Competition in Guatemala in 2001, there were 256manors. After preliminary screening, a total of 105manors entered the preliminary competition of the domestic judging cup. Under the leadership of the presiding judge, 41 manors entered the stage of the international judging cup testing competition. After more than three days of hard work by the international judges, only 15 manors entered the final, and Yunwu Manor was the champion of that year! After winning the championship in 2001, Don Fabio Solis and Dona Sonia worked together with children to improve the planting treatment of the manor, and launched the "Ecological Tour". Visitors can come to Yunwu Manor to take a ride on 4X4, rock climbing, descending, ecological observation, and participate in deep coffee tours such as coffee harvesting and processing.
