Santa Rosa

Santa Rosa is a coffee-growing department located in the south-central region of Guatemala. The area is characterized by nutrient-rich volcanic soils and high- terrain that provide ideal conditions for coffee cultivation. Farms in this region typically operate at elevations ranging from 1,200 to 1,750 meters above sea level. These environmental factors allow coffee cherries to mature slowly, which is believed to concentrate the flavors within the beans.
