The unique fruit named "Incht" in the tiny South Fruit Highland producing area of Guatemala, Incht Village.

.

Arabica coffee grows at an altitude of about 2000 meters, while Robusta grows at an altitude of about 900m. If the altitude is too high, the coffee tree will frost because the temperature is too low, and even can not survive. And Vivette Nanguo coffee even if planted in the highlands of nearly 2000 meters above sea level, it is not easy to appear frost phenomenon, high but not cold growth environment has created high-quality extremely hard beans. This is entirely due to the warm, dry air blowing from the plains of Mexico, which protects the coffee trees from frost.

Like Costa Rica, El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras and other Central American countries, Guatemala's classification is based on altitude. Coffee produced at high altitudes is generally of higher quality than at lower altitudes, because the higher the altitude, the lower the temperature. At high elevations, the slower the coffee grows, the more beneficial it will be to the accumulation of good substances. That's why there is a way to classify quality by altitude. So what is the grading method based on altitude? Let's take Guatemala as an example. The higher the altitude, the higher the density of coffee beans and the higher the grade of raw coffee beans:

The highest grade is SHB (Strictly Hard Bean) very hard beans, which are grown above 1350m above sea level.

Followed by HB (Hard Bean) hard beans, planted at 1200m~1400m above sea level.

There are also SH (Semi Hard Bean) slightly hard beans, which are planted at an altitude of 1200m.

Now that we are talking about the Vivette South Fruit producing area, we have to introduce the star manor here-El Injerto, whose name comes from the unique fruit name "Incht" in the Vivette Nanguo region. There are quite a variety of coffee trees in the manor. Here, Bourbon, Pacamara, Marago Gippe and other varieties are planted. It has an excellent record in Guatemala's COE competition history: nine times in the list, six times in the first place, and won the national championship three times in a row from 2008 to 2010. It is admirable that a manor has such a record in the coffee industry. It can be said that Incht is the most respected manor in Guatemala.

Coffee cultivation at Incht Manor began in 1900. With a total area of 720 hectares, it maintains 470 hectares of primeval forest in order to maintain the natural and precious microclimate. To prevent the microclimate of the whole manor from being affected by excessive reclamation. The use of reasonable farming methods to protect soil nutrients, so that soil quality will not be gradually degraded by long-term cultivation, so as to maintain rich organic matter. In addition, the hardware facilities of the Incht treatment plant are complete, and the quality of the coffee is guaranteed in the later stage through orderly and scientific management. Incht is also very careful in the planting of coffee trees, whether in harvesting, pruning, or fertilization, coffee trees are carefully protected. The planting management of the whole manor has the advanced concept of symbiosis and win-win with ecology. As a result, Incht was certified by the Rainforest Alliance.
