As of 2024, we are in our 4th year buying coffee from Max Perez and his team at Finca La Hermosa. It is a relationship we hold very dear.

You can tell, with each sip, that the plants are meticulously cared for. We are truly honored to have such an amazing opportunity to purchase and feature Max's coffee. Whether it's his organic washed lots or his award winning micro-lots, the quality is always there. Finca La Hermosa's coffees are a shining example of Collaborative Origin's motto; Better Relationships, Better Coffee.

More on Max & Finca La Hermosa;

"Max Perez is a 5th generation coffee farmer. He and his family are originally from Huehuetenango and have a family farm there that is run by his father. 11 years ago, Max and his wife had an opportunity to buy an abandoned farm that has since become Finca La Hermosa.

Since the farm had been abandoned for a significant amount of time, everything needed to be renovated. Plants were pulled up, fields were tilled, raked, and maintained, shade trees were planted, and the construction of a wet mill ensued. This amount of investment is actually quite risky. Since the coffee market is super volatile and doesn’t always offer profit margins, farmers who make investments like that are often driven by something more than profit margins... It’s what I really admire about Max... It’s a farm we’re really proud to represent and a farmer we’re even more excited about. His coffees are stellar but his personality and character is what drives us to want to continue supporting him year after year."
