Arianita - Santa Bárbara, Honduras

Tasting notes: Juicy and sweet. Caramel on fragrance. Taste of fruit compote and vanilla.

In the Los Andes mountain range, Kelvin Pineda cultivates award-winning specialty coffee, expertly managing the entire value chain and growing the plants in harmony with the surrounding wild nature.

Kelvin Pineda’s journey in the coffee industry began in childhood, working alongside his father, who also tended to vegetable crops. Following his father's tragic accident in 2010, Kelvin shifted to vegetable farming for immediate financial stability to support his family. However, in 2017, he seized an opportunity to return to coffee farming by purchasing land from his father-in-law and starting his Arianita farm, reigniting his passion for coffee.

This year we are excited to offer two different lots of coffee from Kelvin. Try them both and find your favorite! Shop Kelvin Pineda - Santa Bárbara here.
