Honduras -Reynaldo Caballero Washed

Taste Notes - Plum, Marzipan, Milk Chocolate 

This is our first year sourcing and roasting this amazing coffee from Reynaldo Caballero out of Honduras.  As soon as we got into specialty coffee, a cup of Honduras is what opened our eyes.  It was simply our first great coffee we had tasted so once we started roasting it was a huge goal to find Honduran coffees we loved like that first great experience in specialty coffee.  We think this coffee fits this goal.  We were  introduced to Benjamin Paz by a friend and could not have been happier to have the opportunity for him to help us find a great coffee for our menu.  Benjamin Paz is a coffee producer, roaster, and exporter in Santa Barbara, Honduras.  He is  also a liaison for the greater Santa Barbara region through his mill and exporting company San Vicente. Benjamin manages hundreds of relationships with farmers in Santa Barbara, connecting each with a roasting partner who can grow with each coffee producer they’re partnered with.  Benjamin is a great asset for the producers in Honduras and he does it all with a smile on his face and a deep love for coffee and the people that grow it.  We are so happy Benjamin connected us with Reynaldo Caballero so we can serve his coffee.
