About this coffee
What is a WOMEN COFFEE?
We decided to support women producers by identifying their coffees with a WOMEN COFFEE logo. Why?
Because women play a vital role in the industry, they have a strong involvement in the farms and represent more than 70% of the labour force in the fields, harvesting, sorting the beans...
However, only 10% of them are entrepreneurs and only 20% are landowners (including joint ownership with their spouses).
Increasing the income of women producers has a direct and positive impact on the education of children and the comfort of the home.

Manual
The farm Finca Las Terrazas
Las Terrazas is one of the three Vides 58 farms to be managed by the same producer, Renardo Ovalle. It is located in the heart of La Libertad, at an altitude of between 1,750 and 2,100 metres. The farm produces the Caturra, Pacas & San Ramon varieties. Humidity at Huehuetenango is very high (70% humidity, 1,500 mm annual rainfall), making production of natural-processed coffees impossible.
The cherries at Las Terrazas are harvested at maturity then de-pulped before being placed in a fermentation tank for 24 to 48 hours (the duration depends entirely on what the weather is like at that time). The beans then pass through water, where they are graded according to their density and washed at the same time. They are then dried on the patio for about 10 to 16 days.

Meet Renardo Ovalle
A few words about Renardo Ovalle
Renardo Ovalle is the third generation of the family to produce coffee in the Huehuetenango region of northern Guatemala. Owner of the La Bolsa, El Rincon and Las Terrazas farms, the company has taken on the name "Vides 58" in homage to the farm's founder, his grandfather Jorge Vides.
A doctor by profession, Jorge Vides left his son, producer and Q Grader, a humanist philosophy that has remained at the heart of the farm and the Ovalle family. The passion of Renardo and his workers for their craft can be felt right down to the cup.
Today, the Ovalle family is one of the most recognised Guatemalan families in the world of speciality coffee. Their numerous Cup of Excellence awards and the positioning of their coffees in the world's most renowned roasting houses have helped them earn this reputation.
