"Born in Guatemala, my journey into the world of coffee began early in life, influenced by the rich coffee culture of Guatemala.
Growing up surrounded by coffee farms and plantations which my family have been managing over many years, I developed a deep fascination in agriculture. I Always knew that we have to see agriculture with business eyes so I studied Industrial Engineer to optimize processes in the farms.
Currently, I am actively involved in managing the operations of the family farms. My work allows me to contribute to the sustainable growth and quality improvement of coffee production."
Fraijanes Plateau: A Volcanic Paradise for Coffee Cultivation
Fraijanes, Guatemala, is a renowned coffee-growing region with a heritage dating back to the 19th century. The region’s volcanic pumice soil, high altitudes, abundant rainfall, and variable humidity provide an ideal environment for coffee cultivation.
Pacaya, the most active volcano in Guatemala, periodically deposits a light layer of ash, enriching the soil with essential minerals that contribute to the coffee’s distinct flavor.
The dry season offers plenty of sunlight, allowing coffee cherries to dry naturally. This combination of volcanic influence and favorable weather conditions gives Fraijanes coffee its unique flavor profile.
Fraijanes is distinguished not only by its natural advantages but also by the dedication of its farmers, who use traditional, sustainable methods passed down through generations.
This combination of unique terroir and craftsmanship results in high-quality coffee that supports local communities and is gaining recognition in specialty coffee markets worldwide.
