Story:

Samuel Escalante owns Finca La Vega in Cuilco, an area with many beautiful coffee farms in Huehuetenango. He primarily grows Caturra and Bourbon varieties but also explores the creation of hybrids. Escalante works to maintain the coffee area already planted and the native forest of their environment. Coffee growing is his livelihood and he takes great care to produce quality coffee.

The Animal:

The Siberian chipmunk was imported from South Korea and introduced in Europe as a pet in the 1960s. It is the only chipmunk found outside North America, and this animal is classed either as the only living member of the genus Eutamias, or as a member of a genus including all chipmunks. 

 Brew guide:

This coffee brews great for most brew methods, and perhaps a little more care for espresso to dial in.
