New Oriente is a very diverse region with the beautiful Cascades of Tatasirere, the volcanoes of Jumay, Alzatate and Monterrico and the ancient woodlands of the Chorti. Hence, there are several micro climates which influence the flavours you can find in each lot.

Our Green Valleys of the Chorti grows in the heart of the Chorti area, near Olopa and Esquipulas - a rainy and cloudy region in an ancient volcanic range. It takes its names from the indigeneous Maya people spread over the the Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador borders - the Ch’orti’. Their language is a survival of Classic Choltian, the language of the inscriptions on the famous Copán ruins. Today, more than 45,000 people still speak the Chorti in language in Guatemala.

In the heart of the fourth coffee region of Guatemala, New Oriente, Green Valleys of the Chorti are an exclusivity from Waelti-Schoenfeld, our sister company.
