Once dominated by small producers who grew coffee as a secondary crop, the region has evolved thanks to investments in infrastructure and the professionalisation of farming. Today, farms such as Las Brisas carry the tradition forward, in a modern and sustainable context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1890\" data-end=\"2263\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1890\" data-end=\"1907\"\u003eMarvin Carias\u003c\/strong\u003e bought his first plot of land in 1990 and has steadily expanded the property ever since, integrating modern and sustainable farming practices. He introduced balanced shade systems, replanted ageing trees and modernised the wet mill, which processes both his own harvest and the coffee cherries from the small farmers in the surrounding area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0932\/2830\/2716\/files\/las-brisas-guatemala-05-9124.jpg?v=1762208394\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0932\/2830\/2716\/files\/las-brisas-guatemala-06-1310.jpg?v=1762208394\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2325\" data-end=\"2565\"\u003eThe coffee is \u003cstrong data-start=\"2348\" data-end=\"2370\"\u003eWashed\u003c\/strong\u003e, a process that involves a controlled fermentation of about 12 hours, followed by careful washing and natural drying on patios. This process brings out the clarity and natural sweetness of the coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2567\" data-end=\"2901\"\u003eA remarkable aspect of Marvin's work is his care for the environment: his wastewater treatment system includes \u003cstrong data-start=\"2684\" data-end=\"2708\"\u003eeight successive tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e, through which the water goes through a complete filtration cycle before being reused in production.

He buys cherries from the small producers in the area, giving them a reliable outlet for their harvest and contributing to the local economy. Through his collaboration with Primavera, a social impact cooperative, he connects local farmers with international markets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3289\" data-end=\"3491\"\u003eThe result of this involvement is visible in the daily life of the community: better roads, access to medical and educational services, and a more optimistic outlook for the young people in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"3498\" data-end=\"3523\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3502\" data-end=\"3523\"\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3525\" data-end=\"3706\"\u003eThis coffee offers a balanced profile, with low acidity and a sweetness reminiscent of red fruits and milk chocolate.
