In the highlands of La Labor, Ocotepeque, Honduras, lives Selin Edgardo Resinos, a dedicated coffee producer, steward of his family farm, Finca La Guadalupe, and one of our longest-standing producing partners.
See you at Coffee Fest in Minneapolis! Swing by Booth #323 to say hello. We'll have guest roasters serving this year's harvest, cuppings featuring our favorite offerings, producer appearances, and more!
Most of our coffees have officially landed at Continental terminals and our Wisconsin warehouse. This means that we finally get to share all of our favorite coffees with you to our heart’s content.
At the time of writing this, most of our Marcala coffees and Santa Barbara coffees are nestled in our warehouses, with some select organic lots from Marcala, Selin’s coffees, and our Family Blends from COCAEER on the way!
After several months well spent at origin, we were able to exceed our expectations this harvest season - both in the quality of our coffees and the relationships we continue to build with producers across Honduras' coffee lands! We connected with new producers and communities, and strengthened our commercial and sustainability commitments with our existing partners!
We're not just in the business of buying and selling coffee. We're fostering meaningful relationships that transcend borders and cultures, connecting coffee farmers with roasters worldwide to create positive change in the communities where coffee is grown.
Reforestation initiatives have become increasingly significant to address the environmental crisis and sustainability of natural habitats on a global scale. We knew we had to take action, so we joined hands with roasters, producers, and members of our Honduran community to plant local and endemic trees in Copán, Honduras.
The first part of our journey through Honduran coffee lands was filled with mostly new faces, which was a great opportunity to get a sense of how our producing communities are doing.
However, the second stretch of our journey focused on catching up with our producing partners to check in on this year’s harvest and our reforestation project at COCAEER! Read on to learn more about our visit and the new selection of coffees you can expect from this year’s harvest.
Our time in Honduras has always had a profound impact on us. During our latest visit, we had the opportunity to visit our producing partners, witness the progress of the new harvest, and reconnect with all the close friends that inspire us to continue sharing the wonders of Honduran coffee with the world.
