This washed Java lot comes from San Diego Buena Vista, a beautiful farm in Acatenango. Located near Volcán de Acatenango, Volcán de Fuego, and Volcán de Agua, the farm sits at 1500 meters above sea level and enjoy rich and well draining volcanic soils. All processing is done on the farm's recently renovated and pristine mill.

This is a Java lot. The Java cultivar is tall with bronze tipped leaves, long pointed seeds, and high cup quality potential. It is a varietal selection from an Ethiopian landrace population called "Abysinia" introduced to the island of Java by the Dutch in the early 19th century. In the mid-20th century, it was taken to Cameroon and after 20 years of selection it made it to Central America. Java is known for its delicate, tea-like, and even floral characteristics.
