Honduras Coffee (Organic, Fairtrade)

Aproccor is a certified Fair Trade and Organic coffee association located in the well renowned growing region of Copan in Western Honduras. The group has a holistic approach to producing coffee and places an importance on improving their community by economically empowering their members, educating their youth, and positively impacting the environment.  Through quality initiatives like improved processing, and the construction of solar dryers, Aproccor has been able to achieve high quality standards. A noteworthy project initiated by Aproccor is centered on crop diversification to achieve food security and alternative sources of income for the coffee producers in the group. It is a progressive and impactful project!

Each of the members of Aproccor picks cherries on his/her respective farm and brings the cherries to a centralized wet mill for processing. As an organization, Aproccor has protocols and parameters in place to ensure that the coffee cherries being picked are at optimal maturity. Once the cherries are picked, they are floated in water to remove the lower-density cherries, and then they are hand sorted. The cherries are then de-pulped at the central wet mill, fermented in tanks, and washed before they are finally dried on raised beds mostly in the shade until the moisture content reaches 11%. By slowly drying on raised beds, the coffee benefits from having continuous, delicate airflow, allowing it to dry evenly throughout. By mostly avoiding direct sunlight, the coffee is protected from excessively hot temperatures.
