This is a very special regenerative lot from the historic Bella Carmona farm, owned and managed by the Zelaya family for four generations. Bella Carmona sits between volcanoes “Vulcan de Agua” and “Vulcan de Fuego”, near the city of Antigua. Coffees from Bella Carmona are processed at the nearby mill also owned by the Zelayas, Beneficio Bella Vista. Over the past three years Luis Pedro Zelaya and his team have been converting Bella Carmona to regenerative agriculture, harnessing nature to produce world class coffees. This bold and exciting transition has lead to a dramatic reduction in the use of synthetic inputs, and an increase in soil health, biodiversity and water conservation. Luis Pedro is planning to convert all of Bella Carmona and the rest of his farms to regenerative agriculture over the next few years. We are excited to be able to offer one of the first lots from Bella Vista's regenerative program.
