More about the coffee
Finca Nueve Aguas, named for the nine natural springs flowing through its land, sits in the cloud forest of Purulhá, Baja Verapaz. The region’s volcanic soils, high altitude and misty microclimate make it ideal for specialty coffee with complex, vibrant flavour. At 1,200 to 1,600 metres the farm grows the Sarchimor variety, known for its resilience and its outstanding quality when carefully cultivated.
Using the washed process, Finca Nueve Aguas brings out the bright, clean flavours of the beans, balancing sweetness and acidity in every cup. The result reflects both the harmony of its natural environment and the precision of its producers.
Owned and run by Waldemar and Crista Schwendener, the farm operates with a deep commitment to sustainability and to its community. Beyond coffee, it provides local families with housing, clean water and land for their own crops. It also played a key role in founding the first school in the nearby village of Panzal, now Santa Rita.
This coffee shows the care, expertise and rich heritage of its origin — a true taste of what Baja Verapaz can do.
