Coffee information

We’re really excited to introduce you to Jesús’s coffee, not only because it’s delicious, but above all because Jesús plays a key role in transforming his community into a true specialty coffee production hub.

Jesus worked for seven years at the Honduran Coffee Institute (IHCAFE), where he helped producers across the country by offering training in soil analysis, harvesting, and coffee processing. Drawing on this experience, his goal is clear: to inspire producers to get into specialty coffee and adopt better agricultural practices. In 2018, thanks to his commitment and the support of Rony Game, the number of specialty coffee producers in his hometown of Selguapa grew from 2 to 30 in just one year.

His journey perfectly embodies the vision of Semilla, our importing partner: to offer fair, transparent prices that allow producers to invest in their farms and communities. With Jesús and visionaries like him, we’re convinced that a sustainable future for coffee is within reach.
