HONDURAS | Javier Fernandez | Pacas | Natural
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. More than a decade later, that group of producers has grown in number, and our relationships have deepened. Javier 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 this, the quality of the coffee produced in the Las Flores community has improved. When we first started working with Javier, natural processed coffees weren’t a thing in Las Flores. In 2016 the Fernandez family and Proud Mary conducted a little experiment to see what would happen. The result was delicious! What started with a single bag of naturally processed coffee has, over the years, revolutionized coffee production in and around Las Flores. This coffee is loud and vibrant, with some big fruit notes.
