About the Farm:

Our Pacavita Honduras green coffee was produced by Silvestre Vasquez and Joel Lopez, two farmers who share a philosophy for continuous improvement in coffee quality. Silvestre's farm sits atop the high altitudes of the Pico Congolon mountain range, nestled between two biological reserves: Reserva Biological de Opalaca and Reserve Biologica Volcan Pacavita. Joel's farm, Los Lesquines, has been in the family for four generations and has cultivated coffee since 1865. Los Lesquines spans around 67 hectares (160 acres), and includes Bourbon, Caturra and Catuai varieties.

The western region of Honduras, where this coffee comes from, enjoys distinct rainy and dry seasons. This facilitates the growth of beautiful, ripe cherries that can be washed processed and laid out to dry in the sun after the harvest. The combination of microclimate, rich clay soil and warm sunlight with careful washed processing composes a multi layered cup profile with bright acidity

These beans are organic but are roasted and packaged on the same equipment as non-organic beans.
