This coffee is from Honduras, specifically from the Los Limos region in Corquin, Copan. It is grown on the San Rafael farm owned by Norma Iris Fiallos at 1300 meters altitude. The coffee is a Red Catuai varietal processed using macerated natural method, where the cherry was macerated for 72 hours before being dried on raised beds for 20-30 days. The farm is nestled within a pine forest, which acidifies the soil and gives the coffee a unique cup profile. This is a shade-grown coffee with an unusual aroma of tree mastic and prune, featuring spice, aloe vera, pear drops and pine notes with a herbaceous, earthy cocoa finish.
