High in the mountains of Santa Bárbara, Honduras, lies El Mirador, a farm perched at 1750 meters above sea level. Owned by Elder Ignacio Chaves Martinez, this 5.25-hectare farm is a testament to passion, hard work, and a love for coffee.
Elder was born on July 31, 1983, in the village of Los Andes, a small community in the municipality of Las Vegas. From a young age, coffee shaped his life. At just seven years old, Elder worked alongside his grandfather, learning the intricacies of coffee cultivation. His grandfather, a patient teacher, passed down not only farming techniques but also a deep appreciation for the land.
In 2009, Elder inherited the family farm. Determined to honor his grandfather’s legacy, he began planting coffee. By 2012, his fields were yielding conventional coffee, and for three years, he worked tirelessly to establish his business. But it was in 2015 that a neighbor introduced him to the world of specialty coffee, igniting a spark that would redefine his journey.
