Honduras Tepanguare La Paz Washed

This single farm microlot comes from the southern part of Honduras in La Paz.

Tepanguare is a village in La Paz, Honduras, with rich history of indigenous settlers. This coffee is a microlot grown there by the Mejia family. While the land is well suited to growing great coffee, the weather poses a challenge. High rainfall often makes it difficult to dry the beans after processing, prompting the need for mechanical dryers and covered patios.  

This lot is entirely the Bourbon varietal which is somewhat uncommon in Honduras.

Roasting it to right before second cracks yields some sort of syrupy citrus (marmalade maybe) and chocolate with an interesting finish that had me thinking of carrot cake.  

Honduras coffee is a great value. For people who are tired of experimenting with exotic, complex coffees, this one is for you.
