Finca Adolfo

Adolfo Farm

Bryan is a young third-generation farmer who became passionate about specialty coffee a few years ago. His father, Juan Adolfo, had started growing coffee many years ago, expanding the farm to almost 50 hectares, but focusing on conventional coffee. After graduating from college in 2017, Bryan inherited part of his family's land. He quickly faced challenges like coffee rust and falling market prices. With the help of local experts from IHCAFE, he started producing microlots. After a promising start, the family decided to devote themselves entirely to specialty coffee.

Alongside his father and mother, Maria Dolores, they form a remarkable team and, in a few years, have transformed their operation to focus exclusively on high-end microlots. The farm, named Finca Adolfo, takes its name from his grandfather and father, with whom Bryan shares the same first name. Originally, only the Lempira variety was grown there, but over time, production diversified towards varieties with greater potential. Today, the farm includes 11 hectares of productive land as well as one hectare of forest with a natural spring protected as a nature reserve. In recent years, labor has been a particular challenge. Despite this, the family continues to improve the farm by renovating some plots with new varieties and installing more solar drying beds.
