Honduran coffee beans have always been famous for their mild and elegant flavor. at present, the coffee production mode in Honduras is mainly small farmers, accounting for more than 60% of the total production. However, have you ever wondered why Saint Vincent is often found in the long list of names of Honduran coffee beans? So let's first talk about the background of this processing plant.

[Beneficio San Vicente]

The Saint Vincent processing Plant (Beneficio San Vicente) is arguably the most famous processing plant in Honduras, with a scale and reputation created by the Paz family after decades of hard work.

Founder Fidel Paz has been in the coffee business since the early 1980s. Since then, Fidel Paz has spent decades working on many production and processing links in order to improve the reputation of Honduran coffee beans, and with the rise in international coffee bean prices at that time, he also encouraged more local villagers to join the industry.

After 20 years of hard work, the St. Vincent processing plant was very successful in early 2000, when Fidel's children and nephews grew up, and the younger generation joined the ranks with more knowledge of agriculture, sales and baking. at about this time, the trend of "single small farmer" and "micro-batch" processing also began, and many coffee beans with this background came to the fore in the COE competition.

In 2009, there are children in the Paz family who have grown up and joined the young new force. each batch of coffee beans have to go through the professional cup test and classification of the processing plant and strict quality control before they can be produced. they work harder to be communicators between farmers and bakeries of all sizes, injecting new ideas and practical practices, and are committed to maintaining the best quality and flavor from beginning to end.

St. Vincent's processing plant is committed to more than just production and processing. It has been invested and cultivated for decades in the producing area, import and export trade and baking of coffee beans. When it comes to Honduran coffee beans, most people think of St. Vincent's processing plant. The Excelsior character handed down from generation to generation has turned St. Vincent into a representative symbol of Honduran boutique coffee, while St. Vincent's acquisition of the surrounding small farmer coffee beans has greatly helped its knowledge, technology and economy, so the coffee produced is high in sweetness and rich in fruit flavor, which is always amazing.
