The coffee story

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxkk8Uoz_NY&t=321s  Historia de CONEBOSQUE

 
The Nueva Esperanza del Bosque Cooperative (Conebosque) was founded in 2004 to process and market coffee produced by small and medium growers in the region. It is a group with 35 producers, of which 20% are women. Each farm has an average of 3 to 4 hectares of coffee and is located at altitudes between 1550m and 1600m. Our regional coffee has a general cupping profile of citrus and sweet with aroma of lemon and chocolate and notes of almond and caramel with a round body.

The Nueva Esperanza del Bosque Cooperative (Conebosque) is an entity that represents an important link in the coffee production and marketing chain in the region. Founded in 2004 with the vision of processing and marketing coffee produced by local small and medium growers, Conebosque has played a fundamental role in the economic and social development of the community.

Currently, Conebosque is made up of a group of 35 producers, with 20% of them being women, highlighting its commitment to gender equity and inclusion in the coffee sector. Each farm associated with the cooperative has an average of 3 to 4 hectares of coffee and is located at altitudes between 1550 meters and 1600 meters above sea level. These specific geographic and climatic conditions contribute to the unique quality of the regional coffee produced by Conebosque. 

 The office and warehouse of the Nueva Esperanza del Bosque Cooperative (Conebosque) are strategically situated at an altitude of 1610 meters above sea level in Aldea el Bosque, within the department of Santa Rosa, Guatemala. Aldea el Bosque is approximately 45 kilometers away from Guatemala City, the capital of Guatemala. This location not only provides Conebosque with a breathtaking backdrop of lush forests and scenic landscapes but also offers ideal conditions for coffee cultivation due to its high altitude and favorable climate. 

COORDINATES: 14°24'21"N 90°23'53"W
This washed lot is composed of coffees from 4 farmers of Conebosque:
Jorge Guzman,  Enrique Garcia,  Nery Campos and the Ramirez Family.

Jorge
Farm: La Pila
Altitude: 1597m
Varieties: Typica and Red Catuaí
Map coordinates: 14° 25' 09" N90° 24' 51"W
About: Jorge joined Conebosque in 2010. He grew up at his family's farm, helping his father with their cattle. When he grew up, Jorge felt demotivated to work with coffee due to the low prices at the time and decided to emigrate to the United States. He lived there for 10 years and later returned to Guatemala to be with his family and look after the farm. Dedicated to coffee, Jorge has been renovating the trees as the older ones have around 50 years. A good part of his plot already has newer trees, ranging from 10 to 15 years. Jorge likes to grow other trees to provide extra sources of income and shade for coffee such as banana, grevillea (silver oak), chalum, orange and lemon trees. Jorge is seen by the community as a kind and positive person, always fighting to export coffee and get better prices to reward their efforts.

Enrique learned how to process coffee with his father and oversees quality at Conebosque

Farm: El Apazotal
Altitude: 1527m
Varieties: Red Catuaí
Map coordinates: 14° 25' 29"N 90° 25' 00"W
About: Enrique is one of Conebosque's founding partners and managed to organize the cooperative alongside several producers
from Aldea el Bosque in 2004. At his farm, Los Apazotales, the age of the trees ranges from 25 to 30 years. The shade is provided by silver oak and lots of pine trees. Enrique is the sixth of twelve siblings and from a young age learned the trade of coffee and processing from his father, who managed a coffee farm in the 1980s. He is currently in charge of supervising the entire dry.
Nery oversees milling and sorting of the coffees so they are screened and cleaned for exporting

Farm: Los Pocitos
Altitude: 1610m
Varieties: Yellow Catuaí
Map coordinates: 14° 25' 18"N 90° 24' 53"W
About: Nery is a very patient, kind and calm person. He doesn't like to talk much but when asked about coffee he brings many ideas. At Los Pocitos, Nery produces good quality bananas, taking advantage of the shade for the coffee plants. Father of two, Nery made an effort with his wife to take them forward in their intermediate level studies. His daughter is currently in third grade and his son has just graduated from general mechanics. Nery is currently in charge of managing the milling and sorting in the dry mill. His concern is that the green coffee reaches its destination as clean and homogeneous as possible.

The family runs a 6 hectares plot together and contribute to the coop's work removinng defects of the coffees

Farm: Trojas Viejas
Altitude: 1485m
Varieties: Yellow and Red Catuaí
Map coordinates: 14° 25' 00"N 90° 23' 43"W 
About: Rufina, Otto and Claudia Ramirez run the Trojas Viejas farm together. They produce and collect the coffee at the 6 hectares plot in a farm inherited from their grandfather. The Ramirez family has plants of 15 and 20 years of age and the main shade tree is the native chalum. They joined the cooperative in 2015 with the aim of learning more about coffee and improving their prices.
Claudia is currently one of the members in charge of the selection process for defective beans (black, dried cherry, snail, cut, brocade).

The process

1-day fermentation process in piles and drying between 8-10 days in the sun in concrete patios Conebosque stands out for having a wet mill and a dry mill, which allows it to process its coffee from the farm until it is converted into gold coffee ready for export. At each stage of this production chain, the cooperative contributes its experience and dedication to guarantee quality and compliance with the highest standards. From the careful selection of the beans on the farm to the meticulous processing in the wet mill, and then in the dry mill, Conebosque ensures that each step contributes to the final result: an exceptional gold coffee. This meticulous attention to each link in the coffee chain reflects Conebosque's commitment to excellence and quality throughout its operation. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
