FARM DESCRIPTION: CAFESMO is a young cooperative based in the Ocotepeque region of northwestern Honduras, founded in 2016 with a focus on diversity, quality, and long-term sustainability for coffee-producing families. CAFESMO actively supports agroforestry initiatives among its members and became the first Honduran member of the ACORN carbon rights program, which supports environmental sustainability through carbon sequestration efforts.

While Honduras is traditionally known for fully washed coffees, CAFESMO has become a leader in large-scale natural and experimental processing methods, producing coffees with the level of care typically reserved for competition microlots. This lot is an anaerobically fermented natural, processed through a controlled whole-cherry fermentation in oxygen-limited tanks before being dried on raised beds. The process enhances fruit intensity, sweetness, and clarity in the cup.

This coffee was grown using organic practices by certified organic producers at origin. 

This coffee is less "funky" tasting than traditional anaerobic making it more approachable. 

To maintain freshness only whole beans are offered through delivery. For fresh ground coffee options please select local pickup and we will grind on request.
