Finca Chacaya Mystic Lake Manor is located on the highest plateau in western Guatemala, between the San Pedro San Pedro volcano and Lake Atitland Attilan (Atitland Lake is also known as the most beautiful lake in the world, located on the 1550m plateau! ). The manor is located in the volcanic area of Haiba 1.565 Muhami 2100. It has amazing scenery, with large volcanic lakes, coffee farms, and magnificent views of three volcanoes surrounding the lake (Atitlan, San Pedro and Toliman).

The quality of coffee here is regarded as the most valuable asset of the manor, and the wonderful results brought to the manor by high altitude, volcanic soil and microclimate can be found on the farm. Because of its proximity to the lake, volcanic soil and skirt mountains are important factors in the formation of microclimate.

The farm is a family business. In the nineteenth century, Cabrera came from Spain. He helped build the town of SOLOLA Solola. Then he went to Guatemala to study law, but he always missed his hometown. He bought Finca Chacaya Mystic Lake Manor in 1909.

Since then, coffee has become the most important crop on the farm. However, affected by the coffee crisis in 1990, they began to plant bananas and avocados. However, the greatest passion of the whole family came from coffee!

According to the traditional treatment, the red fruit is carefully selected by hand, removed from the pulp, fermented naturally and then dried in the sun.

Finca Chacaya Mystic Lake Manor won the coffee bean of the year in the Atitland region in 2014, presenting this wonderful flavor to the world.

The ancient Mayan meaning of CHACAYA means that the hillside is full of clouds. The mysterious Atitland Lake is a volcanic lake with no rivers, but it is clear and deep, but it rises and falls 15 feet every 50 years, which is very mysterious. At present, the water of the lake is 17 feet lower than it was in the 1970s. A very mysterious lake, such a meaningful source, in Chinese we translate into a mysterious lake manor.
