SL-28, Benjamin Paz, Honduras

Description

Benjamin Paz has been a champion of Honduran coffee and coffee farmers for many years. Which is why specialty coffee were elated to celebrate Benjamin winning first place in the Honduras’ Cup of Excellence competition in 2022 and 2024 We are grateful to Benjamin for his partnership and work to facilitate the milling and export of all of our Honduran coffee. When we were first offered to opportunity to purchase coffee from Ben’s farm, Finca La Salsa (best farm name ever?), we jumped at the opportunity. For the third year, we received limited amount Benjamin’s washed SL-28, a Kenyan variety he planted alongside his gesha trees on his farm. True to the variety, this lot tastes as you’d expect from an SL-28 grown in Kenya with rich purple notes like black currant and blackberry. While the terroir of Santa Barbara and Finca La Salsa produces a cup that is richer and sweeter and perhaps less bright than typical.
