Honduras Geovany Lara *New*
This is the smallest farm we've ever purchased from. Sometimes small farms grow the finest crops.
Growing coffee since 2010, Geovany first sold his crop to conventional channels, but the profits weren't enough to make a living. But in 2018, Geovany's brother encouraged him to prepare his coffee to specialty standards and he was able to get in touch with Benjamin Paz of San Vicente mill, and since he's seen his profits bring back a much larger return for his family.
This is as micro as it gets, 1.25 hectare farm planted with 50% Pacas (classic, iconic for the region) and 50% Ihcafe, which is a Caturra and Sarchimor hybrid created in Honduras in the 1990s.
All good with us, as this coffee cups brilliantly. Vibrant red grape situates in a warmth of sugary notes like almond tea cake and caramel apple. One of the smaller parcels we have brought in from Honduras this season, this will be going quick
