Honduras Fincas Mierisch Cerro Azul

Farm Coffee

The Mierisch family has been growing coffee for 4 generations, going on 5 in Nicaragua. They have seen an industry go from a homogenous cash crop commodity to micro lot farming and they have enthusiastically taken a part and sometimes the lead in making these changes.  They have achieved great results proven by the steady increase in quality and success in the Cup of Excellence competition throughout the past 6 years.  They have chosen to take an experience to their neighboring country to the north, Honduras, a six-hour drive from their home in Nicaragua. In 2011 the Mierisch family started the project of revitalizing Finca Cerro Azul in the region of the National Park Azul Meambar in Siguatepeque, Comayagua, Honduras, across El Cielito, Santa Barbara on the other side of Lake Yojoa, which has proven itself with great quality results.
