HONDURAS | Ovidio Gomez - Los Gomitos | Catuai | Honey
Proud Mary's connection to the Santa Barbara region of Honduras began all the way back in 2012 when we were introduced to a small group of producers situated around the town of Peña Blanca, close to the shores of the stunning Lake Yojoa. More than a decade later, that group of producers has grown in number, and our relationships have deepened. Ovidio Gomez was among the members of that initial group. Ovidio is a man of few words but hidden beneath his gruff exterior (often with a machete in hand), he is a passionate soul who cares deeply for the land and his community. Ovidio’s coffees have developed quite the following amongst our staff and regular customers, with the newest incarnation eagerly anticipated each year. This lot comes from Ovidio’s newest farm, Los Gomitos. When Ovidio purchased Los Gomitos, large sections of the farm had been abandoned by the previous owner. After a lot of hard work, the farm is becoming increasingly productive. This year’s lot does not disappoint, with plenty of sugary sweetness, a creamy body, and delicate stone fruit acidity.
