Description

The Coffee For This Blend Comes From Farms In Matazano, La Paz Department, Southwestern Honduras, Near The Montecillos Reserve. 

The indigenous lenka people call this region “the place of stone” due to its mountainous terrain and dense jungle.
La paz features clay loam soils and a temperate climate. Coffee trees grow under shade, often beside banana palms. They receive less sunlight, resulting in lower yields but higher quality beans.

Origin

Honduras only made its mark on the coffee market some 20-25 years ago, and it did so positively, swiftly becoming one of the main coffee exporters in Central America.

The coffee history in Honduras began in 1975 when a sudden freeze in Brazil wiped out the entire coffee crop. The shift in dynamics placed Honduran Arabica as the second-largest global coffee exporter.

Honduran Arabica boasts rich flavors and aromas. Coffee trees grow at elevations of 1000-2000 m, in the shade of mountains and orange trees. This extended ripening period imparts maturity and a distinctive flavor to the beans.

The country primarily exports washed Arabica. Unfortunately, Honduras' natural conditions do not allow for the dry processing method.

General characteristics of Honduran Arabica:

  • Moderate acidity and bitterness that complement the main flavor
  • Fruity undertones
  • Notes of citrus, nuts, and chocolate

Honduran Arabica is an exceptionally intriguing option, and we highly recommend giving it a try
