This coffee got its name from the place where it grows – on the edge of a forest where owls can be heard at night. “El Buho” means owl in Spanish.
Here, in the mountains of Huehuetenango, the cherries ripen with a gentle chocolate sweetness, fruity notes, and a clean, tea-like lightness.
A coffee for those who enjoy calm, balanced flavours and look for harmony in every cup.
Farm and station story
El Buho comes from a plot of the same name, part of Finca La Bolsa in Huehuetenango.
It was named after the forest at the edge of the farm, where the sound of owls fills the night, el buho means “owl” in Spanish.
Finca La Bolsa was founded in 1958 by Dr. Jorge Vides, who transformed unused land into one of the most respected coffee farms in the region.
In 2002, La Bolsa achieved 2nd place in the Cup of Excellence competition with an impressive score of 94.98 points.
Today, the farm is run by the Vides family, continuing his vision of combining exceptional quality with a responsible approach to people and the environment.
The farm operates a school and nursery for the children of its workers, providing both education and meals. This allows families to keep their children in school rather than working on the farm.
Parts of the farm are protected forest areas that help preserve biodiversity and prevent soil erosion.
Processing
La Bolsa sits between two mountains that create a stable, humid microclimate, ideal for the slow ripening of coffee cherries.
After harvesting, the coffee is fermented for 18–24 hours, then the natural fruity layer surrounding the beans is carefully removed, and the beans are washed and soaked overnight.
This method ensures a clean cup profile, syrupy texture, and balanced fruit acidity typical of coffees from Huehuetenango.
Variety
The combination of San Ramón and Caturra is a classic of the Guatemalan highlands. San Ramón adds body and chocolate tones, while Caturra brings gentle acidity and balance. Together, they create an elegant coffee with clarity, sweetness, and a long, smooth finish.

Why Uganda Matters
Namugowa isn’t just another specialty coffee. It’s part of a bigger story that we’ve poured a piece of ourselves into. A year ago, we had the chance to be right there in Uganda – to meet the farmers who grow the coffee, to see the process from harvest to drying. And that’s when we realized we wanted to do even more.
Together with The Coffee Gardens, we co-financed the opening of a QC Lab in Uganda. This quality control laboratory enables farmers to evaluate their harvest directly on site, refine their practices, and, as a result, achieve fairer prices.
Every cup of Namugowa is not only about flavor, but also about the future. About giving farmers the tools and knowledge that open doors to better conditions and stability. And that’s exactly why we love returning to Uganda.🤎

High in the mountains of Cauca, smallholder farmers grow coffee on steep slopes, most of the work done by hand. Their dedication to quality shines through in every cup. For us, Inza is a reminder of their commitment and the strong community that makes Colombian coffee so special. 🤎
