Finca Santa Ana

Just outside of Pueblo Nuevo Viñas, within Guatemala’s Department of Santa Rosa, Finca Santa Ana sits between the Tecuamburro and Pacaya volcanoes, just below the La Gavia mountain. At 1,770 meters above sea level, the farm is part of a humid, tropical forest that defines the Fraijanes Plateau region.

Nando now oversees the operations at Finca Santa Ana and has built a reputation around quality and innovation since winning 4th place in the Cup Of Excellence competition in 2010.

Letting nature run its course

The farm covers about 88 hectares of fertile volcanic soil, owned and cared for by the descendants of Don Lizandro, a coffee grower whose family has cultivated this land since the 18th century. Along with a deep respect for coffee, Don Lizandro passed down a commitment to preserving the natural landscape; protecting rivers, forests, and wildlife that sustain the region’s balance.

Shade trees like Gravilea, Cuje, and Chalum help protect the coffee plants and create a natural ecosystem. Carefully designed contour rows prevent erosion and maintain the rich volcanic soil. Over generations, this approach has produced coffees recognized well beyond Guatemala for their consistency and character.
