La Maravilla is a family-run farm located in the heart of the lush Huehuetenango region, located to the west of Guatemala and near the border with Mexico.  The farm was first established by Guillermo Rosales, and is divided into six plots, which differ in varieties: Pacayal (Caturra), La Peña (Pache), El Mezcal (Bourbon & Caturra), El Aguacate (Caturra), La Cumbre (Bourbon, Caturra & Pache) and Los Arroyos (Caturra & Pache San Ramón). This particular lot comes from a plot of the farm called “Aguacate.” Don Guillermo and Mauricio bought the 25-hectare farm in 1997. The land had been part of Finca El Injerto II, one of Guatemala’s most awarded farms, and the Rosales family named it La Maravilla (“the wonder”) after their reaction to the beauty of the land.
