Coffee in Coban...

Coban is one of the 5 top coffee growing regions in Gautemala, due to it's high elevation. Most of the Fincas...plantations...are owned by Germans though, and there is a distinctive European flair to the whole city. We woke up early the following day and went on our own private tour of a near by Finca. We learned about how coffee grows on trees, and there are two beans to every fruit, and that it is ALL hand picked and sorted based on the quality of the bean... and much to our desperate need for a good cup of coffee, we were rewarded with one at the end of the tour.
