Enrique Navarro
Enrique Navarro Jr., a longtime friend of Onda and the farmer behind our Costa Rican single-origins, is a success story of specialty coffee. He fell in love with coffee early on through his parents' farm in Costa Rica, and through his tireless work, he helped his family improve their crop's quality and earn recognition on a global stage for producing the best coffee in Costa Rica.
Hola, I am Enrique Navarro.
My family won the Cup of Excellence in Costa Rica in 2014, and Hidenori Izaki used that same coffee to win the World Barista Championship that same year.
I thought then that we had reached the highest point in coffee for a producer, but soon I realized I wanted something more: to know who drinks our coffee.
I spent the summer of 2016 in Seattle with the Onda team, taking Business English at UW and learning how to see my own coffee all the way through the craft process. Back on my farm, I’m now partnering with a local university to develop a coffee lab dedicated to innovating a bright future for Costa Rica’s next generation in coffee.
Enrique's bags show the national bird of Costa Rica - colloquially named El Seguetto - sitting atop Enrique's father’s 1970s Toyota Land Cruiser.
