Honduras Bendición

CUPPING NOTES FROM OUR HEAD ROASTER

Grown in the La Paz region of Honduras at 1,500 MASL, the Bendición farm produces a natural process coffee that is bold, fruit-forward, and full of depth. This IHCAFE 90 variety is a testament to what Honduras's rich growing conditions can produce. The cup opens with the dark richness of plum, moves into dark chocolate, and finishes with a bright pop of green apple that keeps you coming back. Complex and rewarding, it's a coffee that surprises you with every sip.

ORIGIN

Farm: Bendición Region: La Paz Process: Natural Variety: IHCAFE 90 Elevation: 1500 MASL

This natural-processed Honduras Bendición showcases the IHCAFE 90 varietal grown in La Paz at 1500 meters elevation. Natural processing typically develops heavier fruit character and body compared to washed methods, a profile evident in Press Coffee Roasters' tasting notes of plum and dark chocolate alongside a bright green apple note. The La Paz region, part of Honduras's renowned coffee belt, produces beans where this processing method can amplify the fruit-forward qualities inherent to the varietal. The interplay between the dense chocolate sweetness and crisp acidity suggests a well-balanced cup that showcases both the region's terroir and the producer Bendición's approach to natural fermentation.
