Honduras Organic Blue Mountain Light

Cupping Notes: Sweet Lemon with a hint of Pepper and Chocolate 

This is an Organic, Fair Trade,  S.H.G. (Strictly High Grown) specialty grade coffee       

        The morning and afternoon sun give the mountains of northern Honduras around Lake Yojoa a soft blue tone, and this high altitude area is the home of some of the most delicious coffee in the world!
         The famers at Cero Azul, El Jaguar, and San Vicente farms have provided us with world class coffees that are distinct in body and flavors.
          We slowly roast our Honduras Blue Mountain Light until the second crack, which results in bright, clear flavors. We enjoy the peppery, citrus, chocolate notes of this excellent coffee.

Photo: It was in November of 1984 that I took what I thought was going to be a two week trip from my home on Maui to the remote Miskitia in eastern Honduras. We travelled to the swampy area between the Coco and Kruta Rivers where the refugees that had been expelled from their homes on the Nicaraguan side of the Coco River lived in squalid conditions. Here I'm travelling with Turman Cunningham and Dan Cergioni on our way back to Auka. Little did I know that there was an incredible adventure awaiting me......
