Honduras – Oliverio Lara Lopez

About the Coffee Farm

Oliverio Lara Lopez and his son Jolman Walter own and manage the farm Bella Vista in the Gualme area of Corquin, Copan. The 3 and a half hectare farm sits 1350masl and is planted with Catuai, Lempira and IHCAFE 90. Oliverio is a very experienced coffee producer, but also very open-minded and was keen to experiment with processing and improve the quality of his coffee. He was one of the first members of the coop to join the micro-lot programme and saw a huge improvement in the quality of his coffee as a result. This lot comes from Oliverio’s farm at higher altitudes in Gualme, where he grows his IHCAFE 90, Lempira and Catuai varieties. This is a washed process of the IHCAFE 90 variety.
