2026 marks the fifteenth year of Market Lane sharing coffees from Santa Isabel, a beautiful family-owned estate located in Guatemala’s Alta Verapaz department, a place where the lush rainforest, cool climate, and plentiful rainfall create fantastic growing conditions for growing exceptional coffee.

Santa Isabel is managed by Luis “Wicho” Valdés, who represents the fifth generation in his family to look after the estate. In recent years, Wicho has taken steps to reduce his reliance on chemical outputs and non-organic materials. Instead, he’s begun producing his own biofertiliser, which assists in making coffee plants more naturally resistant to disease and insects. As he puts it, “Instead of investing in medicine, we want to invest more in nutrition.” As a result, Wicho no longer uses pesticides, and his reliance on fungicides has more than halved. These practices have led to healthier, more resilient trees that produce deliciously distinct and complex coffees like this one.

We’ve been offering beautiful coffees from producer Luis ‘Wicho’ Valdés and his family since 2011.

This lot was carefully wash-processed and then dried, first in the sun and then inside a purpose-built greenhouse.
