Finca Las Rosas is located at the base of the Cuchamatanes mountain range in Huehuetenango. This farm is owned and operated by the Villatoro family and Rolando VIllatoro is currently leading the operation.
This farm began planting coffee in 1920s and has been producing coffee now for four generations.
“In the year of 1920 my great-grandfather Valentín Villatoro Ventura, started to grow typical coffee and Bourbon. Across four generations the farm has slowly evolved and made its way to me- Rolando Villatoro Villatoro. We are located in the imposing Cuchumatanes mountain range in Huehuetenango at a height of 4,500 to 6,000 MASL- just on the border with Mexico.
Now we are cultivating different varieties like: Typica, Bourbones, caturra, paramaràs, Geisha and red patch, etc. To these coffees we give different milling processes such as: Washed, Honeys and Naturals. We have also participated in several competitions in the years 2005, 2008 and 2017 in the Cup Of Excellence competition. We sincerely hope you like the coffee produced at Finca Las Rosas.”
