El Limón spans 18 hectares in Palencia, just east of Guatemala City, at elevations between 1,350 and 1,850 metres above sea level. Palencia isn't one of Guatemala's eight officially recognised coffee regions, names like Antigua and Huehuetenango tend to dominate the conversation, but the Reyes family are quietly helping to put it on the map.
The family operate their own wet mill on site, run by Beto's brother Felix. This gives them complete control over processing - they can separate different lots, keep individual days' pickings apart, and experiment with different methods while maintaining full traceability. It's this setup that allows them to produce both the washed Caturra and natural Pacamara in our Summer Blend side by side.
Natural processing remains relatively uncommon in Guatemala, where washed coffees dominate, but the Reyes family have embraced it wholeheartedly. Their 2021 natural Pacamara earned a top 15 placement in the Guatemala Cup of Excellence - recognition of both the quality they're achieving and the growing appreciation for alternative processing in the region.
