Meet Yojana: The Daughter Who Took Over Nacimiento

Some coffees are named after a place. Nacimiento is named after a beginning — and today, it belongs to the next generation.

The farm started with Alba Marina Parada and Francisco Javier Bautista, a husband-and-wife team who spent years building something worth passing down: a farm in Marcala, Honduras, at 1,650 meters, growing Parainema and Obatá with care that shows in every cup.

Today, that farm is in the hands of their daughter, Yojana Bautista.

A Family Legacy, Not a Handoff

Taking over a family farm isn't just inheriting land — it's inheriting standards. Yojana didn't step in to maintain what her parents built. She stepped in to keep learning from it, season after season, harvest after harvest.

That continuity matters more than it might seem. Coffee quality isn't built in one year. It's the result of decisions repeated correctly, year after year — when to pick, how long to ferment, when the cherries are truly ready. Yojana carries that knowledge forward, the same way it was carried to her.

What Makes Nacimiento Different

Nacimiento is naturally processed — the cherries are dried whole, with the fruit still intact, letting the sugars slowly work their way into the bean. It's a method that rewards patience and attention, and it's part of why Nacimiento carries notes of strawberry, red fruit, and caramel: sweet, layered, unmistakably natural.

One name. Two generations. The same land.

Every bag of Nacimiento is proof that some of the best coffee in Honduras isn't just grown — it's carried forward.
