There are several water springs located on La Conchita farm that help provide adequate moisture during the dry season and have also provided the energy to run the coffee mill throughout the years. The region’s rich soil, adequate rainfall and high altitude combine to create favorable conditions for producing an excellent quality coffee. This estate, known and respected for decades, is currently owned and operated by the Martin family and is what produces this fine Guatemala 17 blend. Every food item in your kitchen started its life on a farm somewhere. Farms are the source of our daily nourishment. Javataza coffee is committed to sourcing sustainable coffees from responsible coffee farmers. Our source coffee farms provide habitat for wildlife, are nature friendly, and a safe, healthy environment for our workers.
