Finca La Perla Sleeping Beauty Manor, Guatemala

Coffee has helped Guatemala's economy in the past century. It is estimated that there are about 120000 coffee producers, accounting for 40% of agricultural exports. As many as 20 of 22 provinces are engaged in coffee cultivation. Almost all areas grow coffee beans, 98% are shaded by trees, and are almost monopolized by Arabica beans. The main sub-varieties are Bourbon, Tipica, Kaddura, Catua í, Pache and Pacamara. Guatemala's high altitude and 300 different microclimates, coupled with stable rainfall and fertile soil rich in minerals, contribute to the cultivation of coffee, making it the best among Central American countries. Since the early 1990s, Anacafe has taken the lead according to the characteristics of coffee, growth climate, soil quality and altitude. Eight different producing areas for producing alpine hard beans (SHB) are: Arcatel Nango Valley (the Acatenango valley), Antigua (Antigua), Attilan (Atitlan), Koban Rain Forest (Coban), Farrakhan Nice Plain (the Fraijanes plateau), Vivienne Nango (Huehuetenango), New Oriental (Nuevo Oriente), San Marcos volcanic area (San Marcos). The main harvest season is from December to March of the following year. Relatively high-altitude producing areas such as Vivette Nan fruit can be shipped as long as the harvest is completed and processed, usually during the period from April to July.

Located in western Guatemala, surrounded by steep green Ixil Triangle highlands (Ixil is the Mayan language commonly used there), Finca La Perla is an independent estate famous for its unique local culture and beautiful scenery. "La Perla" means Sleeping Woman in Mayan, which deepens our impression of her beauty.
