Granada Natural by La Bolsa

In 1958 Jorge Vides, a full-time doctor, hospital director and humanitarian, purchased and cultivated a piece of forest-dense land he named Finca La Bolsa with Bourbon and Caturra cultivars. Three generations later, Finca La Bolsa now spans an impressive 108 hectares, houses a school for farm workers’ children, employs 100 harvest workers and 15 permanent employees and has become both a community cornerstone of La Libertad, Huehuetenango and a pioneer in specialty coffee farming.

Look out for apricot, raisin, candy apple, almond, rich and clean with a chocolate finish.
