Evin and his wife Alma are making waves in the coffee world from their farm in Santa Barbara, Honduras—and for good reason. When it comes to SL-28, Evin has a knack for bringing out both the varietal's classic characteristics and the unique personality of his land.
The SL-28 has quite the backstory: developed in 1930s Kenya as the ultimate survivor (drought-resistant and high-yielding), it quickly earned a reputation for exceptional cup quality that has coffee lovers everywhere taking notice.
This year, Evin and Alma made a bold choice—they focused on pruning and rejuvenating their coffee trees. Sure, it means fewer bags in the short term, but they're playing the long game, betting on quality that'll make future harvests even more remarkable. Sometimes less really is more.
