About Tania Caballero of Nicaragua
Theodore’s Coffee met Tania Caballero and her family while working with coffee growers in that region bordering El Paraiso in Honduras. Tania’s family has been in the coffee industry for as long as she can remember. 39-year-old Tania, who is a mother of four with a degree in Civil Engineering, has dedicated her life to her family farm, and she does an amazing job.
Their coffee has been much in demand from Australian roasters, and this has influenced how they grow and process their coffee. Tania grows Pacas and Catuai varieties on Mi Cielo’s 40 to 50 hectares, and use several processing methods such as washed, natural and honey. With this lot, Tania used the carbonic maceration process, utilizing carbon dioxide to intensify and develop the coffee’s inherent flavors without over-oxidation or alcoholic fermentation.
