Description
Impressions: red raspberry, meyer lemon, pecans, maple caramel Roast degree: light medium (2.5/5) Country: Honduras Location: Las Delicias, El Paraíso Variety: Parainema Process: Washed Farmer: Benito Sanchez Farm: El Higo Import partner: Semilla For the second year, we welcome Benito's coffee on our menu. Honduras often flies under the radar as a Central American origin. It doesn’t offer the large-volume lots of Mexico or Guatemala, nor does it carry the same reputation for quality as Panama or Costa Rica. But make no mistake: the coffees coming out of Honduras are exceptional. Showcasing such coffees from farmers who were historically excluded from accessing the specialty market is crucial; our commitment to support smallholders through Semilla is only growing. Benito knows a thing or two about coffee farming. He has been working his land for nearly 5 decades. Despite rising production costs and the uncertainty of the global coffee sector, Benito remains committed to managing his farm sustainably and securing his well-being, especially now that his eight children are independent. Here are a few words from Benito Sanchez: “Thank you for supporting my coffee. After so many years of cultivation, it is heartening to know that it reaches your tables. I hope one day you can visit my farm and see where it all begins.” Over the past 15 years, Canadian government involvement has significantly influenced Honduran democracy, often creating favorable conditions for Canadian corporations at the expense of local communities. Buying coffee consciously is a small but meaningful way to push back against those dynamics.
