Guatemala Xinabajul Miriam Gomez

This microlot was produced by Miriam Gomez from Bojonalito town, La Libertad area of Huehuetenango. Bojonalito is up in the rural region of Huehuetenango, not far from the border with Mexico. aMiriam's farm is planted at roughly 1700 meters above sea level and planted in a mix of red and yellow Caturra. She and her late husband inherited the 5 hectares of land from her grandmother, clearing the rough landscape for coffee. After her husband passed away, she and her four children have continued cultivating coffee, making improvements to the farm and thier milling equipment over time. The wet mill looks to be quite efficient, and is set up to do some initial grade separation by density before sending to separate fermentation tanks. We've bought her coffee for many years now, but never large enough lot sizes to keep separate. This is our first year having a microlot from Miriam's farm, and we feel very fortunate to have her as a part of our Proyecto Xinabajul.
