About this coffee:
Proud Mary's connection to the Santa Barbara region of Honduras began all the way back in 2012 when we were introduced to a small group of producers situated around the town of Peña Blanca, close to the shores of the stunning Lake Yojoa. Over a decade later, that group of producers has grown, and our relationships have deepened. Nahun was one of the first producers we ever started working with. Back then, he grew traditional varieties, and only processed coffees used the washed method. Today, he is a processing master and has become a leader in his community by sharing all the techniques he has learnt. Because of Nahun’s dedication to both quality and his community, the quality of the coffee produced in the Las Flores community has been steadily improving.
In addition to lifting up his community, Nahun continues to improve the quality of his own coffee and has now placed in the Honduras Cup of Excellence competition three times, each with a version of his Parainema. His honey process was the first, earning him 13th place in 2018. We were huge fans of Nahun’s Honey Parainema long before his success at COE and continue to be to this day. This year’s harvest is as good as ever, with notes of juicy peach and apricot.
