Produced by Omar Rodriguez Jr. in the Copán region of Honduras, this organic lot represents the meticulous standards of high-altitude cultivation. Grown between 1240 and 1560 masl, the coffee undergoes a washed process, a method typically employed to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean. By removing the fruit flesh before drying, producers often achieve a cleaner cup profile that emphasizes the terroir of the Honduras · Copán region.

Roasted by Ozo Coffee, this selection showcases a comforting, dessert-like sweetness characterized by notes of brown sugar, fig, and marzipan. While individual experiences may vary, these flavors often align with the richer, sugar-browning categories found on the flavor wheel. This coffee serves as an excellent example of how careful processing and regional conditions converge to create a balanced, approachable cup that remains grounded in the distinct agricultural traditions of its origin.
