Finca la Playa - Hilario Felipe Rosas Maquez Located at 500 mts away from Blanco River, in the middle of Tuxpango Valley, there is a community known as Fresnal where Finca la Playa is located. This piece of land was inherited from my father, Mr. Juan Rosas Xotlanihua, that has been growing coffee for 40 years. We belong to an indigenous community. Coffee growing is very important to us and it is emblematic and included in our coat of arms.
We feel very satisfied of having participated in the contest. We have as goal to promote in our community all the best practices for producing better coffees.
