Overview
Las Macadamias is an experimental farm of El Injerto. Located to the south of El Injerto, with an area of 12.4 has and an elevation of 5000 to 5800 feet Las Macadamias is at La Libertad, Huehuetenango.
Las Macadamias used to be part of the El Injerto farm founded in the 1890`s. For different reasons the farm was separated from El Injerto as well as others, but it has been worked with the same hard work, passion and quality control.
In this farm we try different agricultural practices, as pruning types, fertilizers, weed control and even varieties; this help us evaluate different methods and if they work we use them at large. The majority of the plantation is a natural blend of Catuai and Bourbon, and a small area in the top of 100% Bourbon.
