———————————————————————————————————————

VALENTÓN OR MUJERES DE VALENTÓN IS A GROUP OF WOMEN PRODUCERS IN HUEHUETENANGO. THEY FARM AROUND 25 HECTARES OF LAND CONTAINING CATURRA, BOURBON, RED PACHE, AND GREEN PACHE VARIETIES. HARVEST TYPICALLY RUNS FROM JANUARY THROUGH APRIL. ONCE PICKED THE COFFEE IS LEFT TO FERMENT FOR 24 HOURS. THEN IT IS PROCESSED AND DRIED ON PATIOS FOR 5 TO 7 DAYS.

THE GROUP FACES CHALLENGES WITH THE PRICE OF FERTILIZERS AND A RUST OUTBREAK THAT INCREASES THE COST OF MAINTAINING THEIR TREES. 

THIS COFFEE WAS SOURCED DURING OUR ORIGIN TRIP TO GUATEMALA IN MARCH OF 2024. MISFIT HAS THIS ENTIRE LOT OF MUJERES DE VALENTÓN'S COFFEE. WE HOPE YOU ENJOY.
