Giladardo and Edy Rivas are two brothers producing coffee in the high-altitude region of Huehuetenango, Guatemala. After inheriting their family’s three-hectare farm, they began working with Caravela to better understand the quality of their coffee and find ways to move beyond commodity production.

The farm is small, biodiverse, and naturally shaded by a variety of trees. All of the coffee is grown organically, although the farm is not formally certified. Giladardo and Edy cultivate several varieties and have recently begun separating them into individual lots to highlight their distinct characteristics.

This particular coffee comes exclusively from the Pacamara trees on their farm. Roasted for filter brewing, you can expect a bright and sweet cup with notes of nectarine and chocolate.
