Introduction to the manor

Valma Manor is located in the Copan area of Guatemala, a perfect producing area with steep mountains, green rainforests and charming flowers, including an unspoiled natural environment and a unique micro-climate. The contrast between the high-altitude mountains and the high-humidity tropical rain forest always surrounds the area with a mist formed by dense clouds falling. Most of the coffee in Koban rainforest is grown on special rolling hills and grows harmoniously with the rainforest made up of local natural trees.

In this unique rainforest area, the Valma family has operated the manor for more than a century and attaches great importance to the environmental responsibility of sustainable management. They retain more than half of the original forest, allowing a wide variety of animals to inhabit. In the process of production, the manor also uses broken coffee residue as organic compost. The excellent quality of coffee is still one of the insistence of the family, they take good care of every aspect of the production process, from seed selection to the final step of storage. Coffee is picked by hand and treated in an ecological water washing site that can reduce water consumption, after which the water will be recycled.

Under the careful management of Valma Manor, in addition to properly preserving the integrity of the rainforest ecosystem here, the coffee beans produced by the manor have the classic style of the Koban producing area.
