El Muñeco: Where Passion and Resilience Merge in Every Cup.

In the mystical lands of Acatenango, where volcanoes guard the history and nature sings in every breeze, a legacy of love and dedication is born, giving life to El Muñeco Estate.

The inspiration for this name lies in Claudia, Max's wife, who affectionately called him "El Muñeco" since their youthful days. This designation symbolizes the intimate bond between them and encapsulates the very essence of this coffee estate.

Max, hailing from a four-generation coffee-growing family, began his professional journey as a lawyer. However, within just two months, his undeniable passion for coffee revealed itself in full bloom. Max unwaveringly trusted his instincts and Claudia's unwavering support.
