This coffee is from producer Jose Esteban Madrid, whose farm is located in the Santa Barbara region of Honduras. It is a 100% Pacas varietal, producing a silky and rich cup with notes of toasted hazelnut, chocolate, orange candy, and mulling spices. Floral notes appear on the finish. The description suggests it as a holiday coffee with cozy, sweet characteristics.
