關於莊園

最初我們秉持著精神,嘗試在莊園裡種植多種類的咖啡,因此現在已種有H27、伊卡圖(Icatu)、帕拉以內瑪(Parainema)、卡杜艾(Catuai)以及藝妓(Geisha),共五種咖啡豆。年復一年,我們一直在追尋最高品質的咖啡,因此我們專注在主要的三種處理法:日曬、水洗、蜜處理,並結合三種技術:乾式發酵(dry controlled fermentation)、長時發酵(prolongated fermentation)及二氧化碳浸漬法(carbonic maceration),以呈現出咖啡豆的最佳風味。


為了產出最高品質的咖啡,並要從眾多咖啡中脫穎而出,我們必須慎選最適合該種咖啡豆生長的培植方式,再配合穩固的加工系統。除了這些對咖啡處理工法的用心之外,我們也仰賴大自然的力量提升咖啡的品質表現,例如運用微生物和有機肥料來施作。

莊主介紹 

佩得羅 杜契斯

我從小種植咖啡長大,人生和咖啡總是相互緊密牽連著,咖啡一直是我熱情所在。儘管如此,我卻從沒想過有一天自己可以靠著對咖啡的熱情維生。年輕時我曾到一間肉攤販工作,雖然這份工作沒有支薪,但是收工後老闆會將肉作為薪資分送給我,我再把這塊珍貴的「薪水」帶給家中的母親,貼補家裡的伙食;我也非常熱愛足球,甚至曾經是職業足球選手,用當時的薪水來平衡學費和家庭的生活開支。

畢業以後,我和兄弟們籌到一小筆足以購買土地的資金,回到瑪爾卡拉(Marcala)種植咖啡,開始擴展我們的咖啡生產事業。

未來期望

在莊園裡建立咖啡實驗室,透過統計數據來管理咖啡的生產流程,並整合所有能提高咖啡產量的創意方法與技術。期盼未來可以拓展國際市場,讓更多優秀的烘豆師使用我們的咖啡豆。

 

有機會的話,我十分歡迎來自台灣的朋友拜訪我的咖啡莊園、認識我的家人,我將樂於分享有趣的人生故事給你們。

ABOUT THE FARM 

At our farm, we're all about experimentation and pushing the boundaries of what's possible with Honduran Coffee. We've dedicated our time and effort to growing a diverse range of varieties, including H27, Icatu, Parainema, Catuai, and Geisha. Each year, we strive to produce the best coffee possible by experimenting with different processing techniques, like natural, washed, honey, dry controlled fermentation, prolongated fermentation, and carbonic maceration.

But we don't just rely on our processing techniques to create the best quality coffees. We understand that it's also essential to have sound coffee growing practices that can be applied to different varieties to achieve outstanding results. That's why we've found that using microorganisms and organic fertilizers has a direct impact on the quality of our coffee. By embracing nature and experimenting with new techniques, we're dedicated to bring out the very best in Honduran coffee.

 

WHO’S THE FARMER

Pedro Turcios

Life is full of twists and turns, and mine has been closely tied to the rich, flavorful world of Honduran Coffee. From a young age, I was already cultivating and nurturing my passion for coffee. I worked hard to provide for my family, taking on odd jobs like working at a butcher shop, where I received meat as payment to bring home to my mom. But, I have another passion - football. I never thought it would become a way to make a living, but it did and it allowed me to pay for my studies, support my family and also got me back to my true passion, Coffee. After finishing my studies, I returned to Marcala, where I joined forces with my brothers to invest in our own land and expand our coffee production.

 

FARMER’S DREAMS

At our farm, we're constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the world of Honduran Coffee. We've opened a state-of-the-art coffee lab where we can gather data and fine-tune every aspect of our coffee-making process. By combining cutting-edge technology with old-world craftsmanship, we're able to create some of the most delicious and unique coffees you'll ever taste. And we can't wait to share them with the world.

We're excited to connect with roasters and coffee enthusiasts around the globe and bring our passion for Honduran Coffee to the masses.

 

I wish that Taiwanese people can have the opportunity to come to visit my farm and meet my family. I want them to know my story.
