Meet Silvestre Justiniano Velasquez Morales, the devoted owner of Rancho las Vegas, nestled in the vibrant community of Ixconoli, within Tectitan municipality, Huehuetenango. With an altitude of 2,000 meters, the farm‘s nuanced environment results in a distinct coffee profile. Here, meticulously washed Catimor, Bourbon, and Caturra varieties are pulped by hand, fermented in tanks for optimal flavour enhancement, then carefully dried on concrete surfaces. The balanced and flexible roast profile ensures the bright and lively notes shine through, whether in an espresso or a light, refreshing pour-over.

From Outpost Coffee
Silvestre Justiniano Velasquez Morales, the diligent owner of Rancho las Vegas, has been engaged in coffee farming for the past eight years. His journey began with planting the first coffee bushes to test their adaptability to the local conditions. Over time, Silvestre’s farm has improved significantly, thanks to technical advice on coffee management. With the support of his family, Silvestre has learned various management methods that have enhanced his farm's productivity. The farm, named Rancho las Vegas due to its proximity to a river, now thrives and provides substantial benefits at harvest time, reflecting Silvestre's hard work and dedication.
