Our coffee flavor profiles may vary as we consistently re-evaluate the quality of our coffees. Please keep in mind that coffee is an agricultural product, and its flavor notes can naturally evolve over time. Also, please remember that taste, especially in the context of such fragile product like coffee, is highly subjective! Our flavor notes reflect our individual interpretations during QC and shall be considered as guidance towards flavor groups rather than rigid and unquestionable coffee’s properties.

Roasting Tips

For majority of our washed Honduran coffees we recommend a rather smooth energy approach from the beginning of the roast, since they tend to absorb energy pretty efficiently from the start. Nothing crazy throughout the roast, just try to achieve your demanded RoR values during the first crack.

Please note this is a general, not a specific tip. Each coffee tends to behave a bit (or a lot!) differently and should be approached individually. We highly recommend working with a colorimeter machine. Your local data, depending on your grinder, grind size and the way you prepare coffee surface for measurements, will be the most precise tool for your QC routine aside from cupping.

Finca El Puente

Marysabel and her husband Moises initiated their cultivating coffee affair in the year 1996 (bought land in 1992).

Marysabel comes from the coffee growing family that dates back all the way to the year 1907. It wasn’t until 1996 after she married Moises when they have decided to focus and work hard to develop quality in coffee and eventually become coffee growing leaders in their country.

As COE winners Marysabel and Moises humbly and consistently work hard to maintain the highest coffee potential with respect for their community and the surrounding environment. Although their focus of attention is to achieve the highest quality they believe that social and environmental sustainability is an inseparable part of producing coffee and it reflects on all the coffee producing levels.
