Honduras Anibal Erazo Pacas

Anibal Erazo's farm "El Tontolo" ("the Fool, in English!) is located in the village of El Cedral, within the Western Honduras Department of Santa Barbara, that shares a border with Guatemala. His farm is just 1.4 hectares in size, with 1 hectare planted in coffee. The farm sits at 1575 meters above sea level, and Anibal cultivates both red and yellow Pacas, along with a small amount of Pink Bourbon. Anibal worked this land with his father, eventually inheriting a portion of the farm back in 2010. He linked up with Beneficio San Vicente through a relative and has been focused on making improvements to his farm ever since. Anibal ferments his coffee for around 48 hours without water, after which, he rinses four times in clean water to remove the remaining fruit. The coffee then moves to indoor, "solar" drying rooms where it is turned for 2+ weeks until fully dried.
