Honduras - Drip coffee bags
Description
Fredy Rolando Pineda has been involved with coffee production all his life. He inherited his 2 ha farm 'Finca Fredy' from his father, and he is a part of the Aruco Cooperative, being one of the 33 producers involved in their micro-lot program. He has been working on producing specialty micro lots since 2016 and receives advice from the technicians at Aruco about farm management and soil fertility to help produce good quality cherry and and prevent pests and disease.
All the processing for the takes place at the Aruco mill to centralise and have greater control over the process to create consistent procedures, and to reduce the risk on the producer. The mill is at 800 masl, which gives a drier more stable climate to dry the coffee compared to up at the farms, where the weather can be less predictable.
