Coffee Story
This lovely field blend of Bourbon and Typica is grown in the Comayagua mountain range in Honduras on Jesus Galeas’ farm La Falda. Jesus Galeas, also known as “Chungo” within the community, is constantly full of energy, laughing, and talkative. His passion for coffee is evident as he works as a lab assistant alongside Rony Gamez at Cafe Raga, where he trains in cupping and sample roasting. In 2014, he inherited his farm from his father, who, like Antonio Ramirez, had started production over 30 years ago in the Comayagua mountain range. He began working in coffee around the age of 19, selling their cherries to local intermediaries alongside his father. However, he soon discovered the specialty market and transitioned to controlling their specialty processing by investing in equipment such as depulpers, solar dryers, and parchment storage facilities. This investment elevated the quality and preserved the freshness of their coffees.
