Elvin Carrillo

Single Origin Honduras High in the Comayagua mountains of Selguapa, at 1700 meters above sea level, Elvin Carrillo crafts something deeply personal. This isn't just coffee – it's a testament to determination, family tradition, and hope for the future.

Each sip tells the story of a 35-year-old father of four who balances day labor with tending his cherished one-hectare farm in the evenings. Growing Typica varietals he planted himself in 2016, Elvin employs a precise honey process: 40 hours of anaerobic fermentation, depulping, 35-hour dry fermentation with mucilage intact, and up to 30 days of careful drying on shaded African beds. The result is extraordinary: honeyed sweetness that bridges vibrant tropical fruit notes and warming spice complexity. Our light-medium roast preserves these delicate characteristics while adding just enough body to showcase the bean's inherent richness.

For the pour-over connoisseur, this limited batch represents not just exceptional coffee, but a direct connection to a farming family striving for a better future. With each purchase directly supporting Elvin's goal of expanding his farm and providing better opportunities for his children, it's a rare opportunity to experience both outstanding Honduras coffee and meaningful impact. Like all precious things, this won't last forever – secure your batch while you can.

For a typical cup of coffee (using about 20g per cup):

Two cups per day:

• You use about 40g of coffee per day (280g per week)
• One 12 oz (340g) bag will last you about 8-9 days
• A 1 lb bag would last about 2 weeks

General weekly estimates:

• 1 cup/day: One 12 oz bag lasts about 2 weeks
• 2 cups/day: One 1 lb bag would be perfect for 2 weeks
• 3-4 cups/day: A 2 lb bag would last about 3 weeks
• Heavy coffee drinker or household with multiple coffee drinkers: Our 5 lb bag offers the best value

Note: For French Press or cold brew, you might use slightly more coffee per cup, so consider sizing up to ensure you don't run out!
