DISCOVER THE SOURCING STORIES BEHIND OUR SINGLE ORIGIN ESPRESSO

We are celebrating International Women’s Day at Redemption with the launch of our new single origin espresso, Poder Feminino, meaning ''Power of Women".

Showcasing coffee from six female producers from The Aruco Cooperative in Honduras.

This coffee blend was made to highlight the role of women in the coffee supply chain with the goal to give a very cost-effective, but high-quality coffee at scale, which allows us to buy more coffee from these producers. This coffee also celebrates our ongoing relationship with Aruco Cooperative, and our commitment to improve gender equality in the coffee industry.

Karla Orellana

Introducing Karla, owner of the El Hichozal farm, area of Corquin Copan. Karla has been regenerating her farm from planting Caturra beans to Lempira and Parainema beans. The lower altitude farm has unique micro-climates, resulting in a coffee with a higher acidity than other nearby farms.

Yolanda Urrea Arita

Introducing Yolanda, owner of The El Triunfo coffee farm, nestled within the native forest in the La Pacayas area of Corquin. The farm grows pure red catuai beans across a small field. Yolanda believes that the key to the quality of her coffee is in the synergy of coffee with the rich biodiversity of surrounding nature.

Nely Suyapa Orellana

Introducing Nely, owner of the Las Gemelas coffee farm in Corquin, a town in the Copan region of Honduras.

The farm is named after her twin daughters, who will one day inherit the land. The high altitude of the farm, which sits at 1200masl, results in a coffee with an incredibly sweet flavour profile and delicate acidity.

Norma Aracely Orellana

Introducing Norma, owner of the La Arada farm, in the El Hichozal area of Corquin, Copan. Norma manages the farm with her mother and has replanted new varieties of red and yellow caturra beans, such as Lempira and Colombia. The farm has a unique microclimate which is perfect for producing coffee with many taste profiles.

Roxana Orellana Aguilar

Introducing Roxana, owner of the Finca Veco farm, who inherited the land from her parents. Roxana oversees the farm with the running from her sister and mother, along with working for a national Honduran bank. Roxana is passionate about the work on the farm with fond memories of her childhood growing up in beautiful surroundings.

Mildred Molina

Introducing Mildred, owner of the farm Don Joaquin, learning the trade from her parents. Mildred has been working on the farm for five years, partnering with The Aruco Cooperative to improve production quality. Working alongside her four sons, Mildred is involved in all stages of the process, from cherry picking through to washing and processing.
