Miguel Angel Paz has owned the farm El Pitarrillo for 25 years.
The farm is situated at 1250 masl and is 7 hectares of land, most of which is producing coffee.
Honduran specialty coffees are classified using a system categorized by the height at which the coffee was grown. Strictly High Grown (SHG), applies to coffees grown above 1200 masl, and High Grown (HG) above 1000 masl.
Honduras has the conditions to produce very good coffees: high altitude, volcanic and fertile soils, an ideal climate and plenty of expertise.
However, a lack of investment and inadequate infrastructure means that our suppliers must work extra hard to find, and support, the best coffees that Honduras offers.
