Eleuterio Matias Cruz named his coffee farm 'Finca El Macahuite' in honour of a native tree with vibrant yellow flowers that grow throughout the area. It also reflects Eleuterio's beliefs of living and growing in harmony with the land, which is evident during the harvest period. Helped by his wife and daughter they only pick the ripest red cherries 3-4 times each cycle.
Eleuterio says working with plants makes him feel connected to nature and this connection, in turn, provides an income for his family. His switch to specialty production two years ago has empowered him to earn more for his labour and improve the quality of each harvest.
This coffee is 100% certified organic and 100% Typica but anything other than typical! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
