Benjamin Paz (Las Elias)

Description

Varietal - Caturra Processing - Washed Altitude - 1,400 - 1,500 m.a.s.l Region - Santa Barbara, Honduras Tasting Notes - Apple, Plum, Brown Sugar When we first visited Benjamin Paz in 2024, we instantly knew that we had met an exceptional coffee professional. Benjamin Paz is a two-time of the Cup of Excellence in Honduras and is a key pillar in his community in Santa Barbara. Through his exporting business San Vicente, he and his team works with almost 500 smallholder producers to bring Honduran coffees to the world. As a third-generation coffee producer who has worked in the industry all his life, he has established himself as a role model for Honduran coffee producers and is generous in supporting them with processing and operating needs. Besides that, he is a respectable leader who overseas the operations at the San Vicente mill, and manages the operations of his six farms. This washed processed Caturra was grown in a farm called Las Elias, one of Benjamin’s most well-known farms. As an espresso, it is sweet and juicy, reminding us of apple, plum and a long brown sugar finish.
