Juan Benitez

Juan Benitez is a longtime coffee producer in the Cielito community of Santa Bárbara, Honduras. Verve documents a multigenerational coffee-growing family and a sourcing relationship dating to Juan's early production.

History

Juan and his brother operate neighboring small farms in Cielito. Verve's 2017 producer profile says Juan expanded from less than one bag in his first season to roughly 20 bags and invested in a larger, easier-to-clean concrete fermentation tank.
