Producer Kelvin Pineda worked in the coffee family business until the tragic accidental death of his father in 2010. He took responsibility of the family and moved from growing coffee to vegetables, but returned to coffee cultivation in 2017 with a new block of land: Arianita. This very obviously high-grade specialty coffee won the 2019 Best of Honduras Late Harvest Auction with a final bid of USD46.40/lb. Kelvin clearly knows what he’s doing, and we’re just excited to be able to share his work with roasters everywhere.
