About the producer
Marysabel grew up in the Honduran region Marcala and stems from a long generation of coffee producers, from which she has harnessed her passion for nature and knowledge of the Honduran terroir.
Moises is of Guatemalan origin. He worked as an accountant for a coffee exporter, however while spending his time at the cupping table he jumped wholeheartedly into specialty coffee. In the early 90’s, he was sent by his company as production manager to Honduras where he met Marysabel and was inspired to stay. In 1996 Moises and Marysabel married. Since then, they have two sons and run the farm as partners.
About the processing
Processing begins with sorting freshly harvested cherries via floatation. Sorted cherries are then depulped and washed before being fermented for 24–32 hours. The fermented coffee is then dried for 20–25 days before being taken to El Puente for milling, packaging, and export.
