Luis Pedro Zalaya Zamora and his team and Bella Vista Wet Mill personally manage all of these farms, ensuring that each one maintains a high standard of quality. Originally an employee at Bella Vista Wet Mill, Luis Pedro Zalaya has over 20 years of coffee producing experience that he now uses to manage multiple teams that oversee hundreds of farms in Guatemala. This particular lot is named Bella Carmona, an homage to the Zalaya family’s Hacienda Carmona. Cherry is delivered daily at Bella Vista from all over the valley. Processing is separated into numerous channels that represent Bella Carmona farms, Hunapú farms, and microlots such as single estates, single smallholders, or growers from elsewhere in Guatemala that Bella Vista represents. Once inspected and weighed, cherry is depulped and fermented overnight in one of the mill’s many tanks, washed clean the next day, and patio-dried.   Each individual batch of cherry is tracked electronically using a software created by Bella Vista, and drying or finished parchment is tagged with a QR code that allows the team to scan and review the exact blend in each batch, by contributing farm or farmer, variety, and location. This traceability follows each lot to the cupping table, where the Bella Vista team approves individual day lots for blending and shipment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWHY WE SELECTED THIS COFFEE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe're excited to introduce our first coffee from Bella Vista Mill in Guatemala.
