Ixlama from Huehuetenango, Guatemala, comes from specialty-selected small producers, like Finca El Paternal and Finca Nueva Palmira, from the highlands of San Pedro Necta and La Libertad in the state of Huehuetenango. This shade-grown coffee is harvested and brought to the mill where it is sun dried on a patio and placed in “guardiolas.” It is separated by color via computer and density/size mechanically which results in a superior, clean, bright cup.
