Proud Mary Coffee
Portland, OR, USA
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 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. In addition to lifting up his community, Nahun continues to improve the quality of his own coffee and has now placed in the Honduras Cup of Excellence competition three times, each with a version of his Parainema. His anaerobic natural process ranked 4th in 2022 (his highest position to date) and was the only non-Geisha in the top seven places! This coffee blows the flavor roof completely off!
