Mario Mejia is a second generation coffee farmer working his and his fathers lots in Tutule, Las Paz Honduras. He recently graduated agronomy school and is implementing his studies to prepare specialty coffees. He is working on furthering his knowledge in processing to continue to raise the quality of his crops. In his farms you can also find avocado and red fruits growing. Honduran coffee typically exhibits high acidityAcidityThe bright, lively, fruit-like sensation in coffee — praise, not a flaw. Citric sparkle, malic apple-crispness, tartaric wine notes; light roasts preserve more of it., but as a naturally processed coffee, this one offers a more balanced and vibrant acidity that is exceptionally pleasant. We roasted it dark to achieve a fully rounded profile. The result is a juicy cup with complex floral notes and a subtle, lingering aftertaste, making it equally enjoyable as a filter coffee or espresso.
