Finca Relámpago

Profile image · identity and location not independently authenticated

This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.

The story

Previously owned by Don Rafael, the farm was purchased by Los Volcanes Coffee in 2024 and repositioned as a dedicated site for agronomic and processing research.

Challenges

Finding roughly a dozen harvest workers for the December–March picking season has recently been difficult.

Innovations

Los Volcanes uses Relámpago as a research and experimentation site, managing light, shade, field organization and drying-patio protocols. Coffee is processed off-site at Beneficio La Esperanza in Antigua.

Published coffees linked to this farm

For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.

Research sources & verification

These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
