Lot Isabel comes from La Cima del Cielo, a high-altitude farm in the El Cedral area of Santa Bárbara, Honduras, owned and operated by Pedro Erazo. Situated at approximately 1,580 metres above sea level, the farm’s cool, mountainous environment slows cherry maturation, producing denser beans with enhanced flavour complexity. Pedro began his farming career growing mixed crops, including fruit trees, before gradually shifting his focus to coffee. His first farm, El Milagrito, marked the transition toward specialty coffee, with La Cima del Cielo developed later to prioritise high-altitude, quality-driven production.

The Isabel Pacas Washed 2025 lot was processed using traditional washed methods, designed to highlight clarity, sweetness, and varietal expression. Ripe cherries were hand-picked selectively and floated to remove underripe or defective fruit, then pulped and fermented in controlled tanks to break down residual mucilage. The coffee was thoroughly rinsed, then dried on raised beds and controlled platforms with frequent turning to ensure even moisture reduction. This meticulous handling, combined with the high-altitude microclimate, produces a coffee defined by crisp acidity, clean sweetness, and nuanced varietal character.

La Cima del Cielo primarily grows Pacas, a variety well-suited to steep terrain and high-elevation growing, and the Isabel lot represents the most refined expression of Pedro Erazo’s long-term commitment to precision, repeatability, and quality-focused farming.
