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. Nahun was one of the first producers we ever started working with. Back then, he grew traditional varieties, and only processed coffees using 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. This Honey processed Catuai lot is reminiscent of coffees from the early days of our relationship – a call-back. Sweet and approachable, with notes of vanilla and citrus.
