Description

Edin Lopez is one of the many farmers who sell their coffee to Beneficio San Vicente in Santa Bárbara, Honduras. His farm is located in the community of El Cedral on the eastern side of the Santa Bárbara Mountain, overlooking Lake Yojoa.

Consisting entirely of the pacas variety, this balanced, comforting coffee is one we've looked forward to for months. Presenting beautifully as either filter coffee or espresso, it reminds us of milk chocolate, hazelnut, and toffee along with crisp notes of red apple and pear.

Coffee Specs

Beneficio San Vicente is among the most respected operations in specialty coffee. When Fidel Paz started buying and selling coffee in Santa Bárbara Department in the 1980s, Honduras did not have an excellent reputation for its coffee quality. Since the early 2000s, thanks to the extended Paz family and competitions like the Cup of Excellence, San Vicente has helped establish Honduras as a source of some of the world's very best coffees.

Most of the coffees milled at San Vicente originate from the highlands around the Santa Bárbara Mountain and Lake Yojoa. The area's misty conditions and cool temperatures prolong the maturation period for coffee fruits. Consequently, the harvest finishes much later here than in Marcala, where the rest of our sourcing in Honduras is concentrated...
