This honey processed lot comes to us from third generation coffee farmer Orlando Antulio Martínez Samayoa. Expect a sparkling and high intensity cup profile with an abundance of blue and purple fruit tones and a creamy, vanilla finish.
Orlando owns and operates the six hectare farm El Anonal alongside his wife and son. His grandfather Javier first planted coffee on a small plot in 1985 and over the years the family has purchased additional small parcels of land to grow an assortment of varieties and steadily improve their processing methods. A passion for experimentation and innovation guides Orlando and his family as they work to carry on their legacy of growing excellent coffees in La Libertad.
For honey processed lots at El Anonal, ripe fruit is harvested and then left to rest for 12 to 24 hours, after which the coffee is pulped and placed in thick layers under canopies to dry. This takes 12 days on average, over which time the coffee is moved three times a day into progressively thinner and thinner layers to ensure a steady and homogenous drying process.
