Finca Santa Felisa, a famous organic coffee farm in Guatemala, was founded by founder Trinidad E. Cruz in 1904 in the Maya Kakchiquel district of Akatilando. It has coexisted peacefully with the Mayans for a century. The Cruz family has been in good faith and kind to the aborigines. So far, the Maya Kakchiquel people still serve their family on the estate, and the Cruz family has entered the fourth generation.
The reason I respect the brothers and sisters of Anthony and Annabella at the helm is not only their high-quality coffee, but also their kindness to the Kakchiquel. Of the manor owners I have visited, only Anabella Meneses will introduce all the workers to the buyers one by one. When she introduces them, she will explain the contents of the work and count their outstanding points! The process is warm and touching, and these people are really respectable orchards and hard workers in the processing field!
Annabella told me, "I am proud of these colleagues!" They not only work hard to collect ripe fruit carefully, but also do a very good job of post-processing!

I asked the two brothers and sisters why there were so many ways to deal with them. Anthony said: "customized post-processing should be a trend. At the end of the first bidding in 2011, we found that bean bakers from all over the world had different preferences and needs for flavor. We examined the flavor performance under different treatments of the manor one by one. This is a lengthy experiment and patience test. The cup test results, the flavor performance makes everyone very amazing, hard work, but worth it!" 2018 this batch of tangerine bourbon is sweeter than washed bourbon.
The producing area only became the eighth coffee producing area in Guatemala in 2007, and we translated it into "Akatilanda Valley". Located in Guatemala's Chimaltenango province, more than 5000 hectares of coffee plantations have fertile volcanic soil, mainly located in the two major volcanic mountains, and almost all have forests and shade trees. as can be seen from the above photos, almost all of the estates are shaded and planted, mainly bourbon and some Catuai and Kaddura. Akatilana has two major volcanoes, Volcan de Fuego and Volcan, especially the third peak of Central American volcanoes, and across Volcan de Fuego is the Lake Atitlan.
The annual rainfall in the area where the manor is located is 48 to 72 inches, the average annual temperature is 14 to 31 degrees Celsius, and the temperature difference is large enough, so the density of beans is compact, which is good for flavor, and the coffee harvest season is mainly from mid-January to March. At present, there are still Kakchiquel people living in the area and maintain traditional farming methods, and St. Ferissa Manor is because of maintaining good relations with the Kakchiquel people and being kind to them, so this people are responsible for farming and get along well with each other. There are about 4000 farmers in this area, and the cultivation of coffee dates back to 1880. St. Felicia was reclaimed in 1907, and the estate was located at a higher altitude, which was also a pioneer of Akatilan.
