(Mr Angel Arturo Paz, a famous local agronomist) hosts the St. Vincent treatment Plant (San Vicente), which is the secret of why the St. Vincent treatment Plant in Honduras often becomes a long-term winner in the COE (Cup Of Excellence) Cup.

St. Vincent's processing plant buys coffee cherries from small farmers in the surrounding towns of El Cielito, Las Flores, and El Cedral. Although the quantity is so small that it is usually difficult for these small farmers to produce separate batches, the beautiful and unique climate and the processing plant have greatly helped small farmers in terms of knowledge, technology, and economy. As a result, the coffee produced in this region has always been amazing with its high sweetness and fruit-like temperament.

Honduras

It has been more than 200 years since Honduras began to grow coffee (it began in 1804). According to statistics, the planting area now reaches 280000 hectares, all of which are mainly small coffee farmers. 92% of the coffee farmers in Honduras are small individuals, and most of their coffee plantations cover less than 3.5 hectares. These small coffee farmers account for 60% of Hongguo's coffee production! Coffee is a very important crop in Honduras.
