About Guillermo Alberto Werner Rubio of Guatemala
Finca Orion was founded in 1960 by the Prado family, and has been passed two generations to Guillermo. Guillermo started managing the 75-hectare farm about 15 years ago. His focus was to cultivate Caturra and Archmore variety of coffee plants especially for the specialty coffee market. Plentiful shade and moisture allow him to keep plants cool enough to slow cherry development, resulting in more flavorful beans.
Because of the increasing issue of climate change, Guillermo has decided to dry his coffee on patio beds for 8 hours and then in mechanical driers for 40 hours. This combination of traditional, patio drying and mechanically slow-drying has produced a really complex and richly sweet coffee.
