The history of San Sebastian Coffee starts over 130 years ago, in 1890, when the land was purchased by Don Salvador Falla Santos. Way back when coffee production in Guatemala was merely starting. Through years of effort and dedication, a sophisticated production system was created, one that has technologically improved by each generation.

The Falla family inherited a love for coffee which turned the plantation into a family heirloom. To date, five generations have taken charge over the plantation, each with different personalities and strategies, which combined ensured a history of success and international recognition that characterize San Sebastián.
