The past few years have brought many changes for our longtime partners in Nariño, from new leadership at Finca Villa Loyola to a new processing site for Finca Santa Maria.

Nearly two decades into the Panamanian Gesha revolution, the country’s premier producers continue to push the boundaries of specialty coffee by exploring and refining processing techniques.

The final stop on our team's trip brings them to Bicafe, which provides dry milling for our partners, and Finca El Socorro, where a wide range of varieties thrive.

Huehuetenango is home to Finca La Providencia—responsible for the "body and soul" of our Signature Blends for most of the year—and Finca La Bolsa, a Vides58 farm.

In Guatemala City, Servex provides essential dry milling, exporting, and logistics services to many of our Direct Trade partners. Take a peek inside!

Next stop for our coffee sourcing team during their Guatemala trip: Nando Diaz's Finca Santa Ana, a remote farm in Santa Rosa Department.

Our team traveled to Guatemala this week to visit our Direct Trade partners during harvest. Follow along!

From growing its own bamboo for infrastructure construction to harvesting rainfall for irrigation, Villa Loyola has become much more than a coffee farm—it's a sustainable agriculture innovation center. Our green coffee buying team visited last winter to see their latest projects in action. Take a look.

Each spring we eagerly anticipate the arrival of a new harvest from our longtime Direct Trade partners Finca Santa Maria. This winter, our green coffee buying team visited Armando Portilla during harvest to observe picking, sorting, and processing. Take a look.
