La Laja Huatusco

(Provided by our importing partners at Sucafina)

"The Sampieri family has been growing coffee in the fertile soil of Huatusco since 1920. They purchased Finca La Laja in 1980 and, in 1999, established AC La Laja SA de CV (La Laja SA), a broader coffee company. Finca La Laja sits in La Laja, Tlatetela, in Huatusco, at 1,130 to 1,250 meters above sea level. The area is mountainous and fed by a network of small tributaries
running into the La Antigua river.

Since acquiring the property in 1980, the Sampieri family has continuously pursued improvements in each harvest to achieve a high-quality cup, experimenting with various post-harvest processes including honey, natural, washed, and semi-washed methods."
