Honduras San Juancito Lot#1

Country: Honduras

Producing area: San Juan Theodore

Altitude: 1450-1550 m

Treatment: washing

Because Honduras is located in the tropics, the temperature change in San Juan Theodore is small throughout the year. Therefore, the so-called winter is actually the rainy season, while the so-called summer is actually the dry season. In the tropics, altitude has a greater effect on temperature than the duration of precipitation in a year. San Juan Seto is located more than 1239 meters above sea level, making the temperature slightly cooler all the year round. In summer (March-June), the maximum temperature is usually about 26C, while the average minimum temperature is about 18C. The highest average temperature in winter is 20 ℃ and the lowest is about 14 ℃.

The modern economy of San Juan Seto is largely dependent on agriculture, most of which is small-scale coffee production, and its climate and altitude are very conducive to the production of high-quality coffee beans. COMISAJUL, a partnership of hundreds of small coffee growers in central Honduras, is located in San Juan Theto. COMISAJUL is a cooperative organized by hundreds of coffee farmers in the San Juan Heido region, where coffee is grown in mountains 1450-1550 meters above sea level and shaded by bananas, avocados, papayas and other fruit trees. Coffee farmers pick ripe fruits by hand during the harvest season, wash them and then dry them in the sun. The fermented water with coffee peel and pulp produced by water washing is collected and used as fertilizer for coffee trees. This batch of coffee tastes very clean, high sweetness, very soft acidity, with the flavor of milk chocolate.

Variety: bourbon

Handlers: COMISAJUL Cooperation Organization

Introduction:

Coffee was grown in Honduras in 1804 and now has 280000 hectares of coffee plantations.

All of them are mainly small coffee farmers, and the planting area of their coffee plantations is mostly less than 3.5 hectares.

Coffee farmers account for 60% of Hongguo's coffee production. Coffee production in Honduras in 2011

Surpassed Guatemala and became the second largest exporter of washed Arabica beans in the world in 2012.

Second only to Brazil. It now ranks seventh in global production. Coffee cultivation is not like a banana garden.

Coffee-related workers account for 12.5% of the total population of 8 million, so coffee is in Honduras.

Is a very important crop. In the coffee garden, coffee farmers harvest red fruit, wash it, ferment it and add it.

To grade according to the needs of the market to meet the needs of different tastes of consumers. Honduras

Coffee producing countries, whose output has been increasing in recent years, due to high international coffee prices in 2012.

The output of coffee in this year exceeded 5 million bags in 2010, with a great increase in production and continuous improvement in quality.

The largest coffee province in Honduras is the The Santa Barbara region, which is located in western Honduras.

Is in the northwest of Lake Yojoa, an area that has developed into Honduras in the past few years.

Famous coffee producing area. At the same time, this area comes from a famous agronomist Mr. Angel Arturo Paz

He owns a post-processing plant, St. Vincent's treatment Plant (San Vicente), in the western Yojoa Lake.

The small town of Pe ñ a Blanca in the northern Santa Barbara province (Santa Barbara)

Acquire the surrounding towns of El Cielito, Las Flores and El Cedral (these

Each place has at least 35 families and one school) coffee cherries produced by small coffee farmers.

Although the number is so small that it is usually difficult to separate these small farmers' output batches.

But the coffee produced in these regions has always been amazing with high sweetness and fruity.

St. Vincent (San Vicente) is a family-run processing plant that is well known locally.

As a result of assisting farmers to upgrade their planting technology and improve production equipment through projects, they are committed to investing in

The close contact of the producer, and take the coffee cup test as each batch of products strictly guarded.

Flavor description of the winner of the World Cup

Hazelnut, pine, apricot

Honduras has always been among the top few in the boutique coffee market, but Honduras has the advantages of natural environment, such as excellent soil quality, altitude and climatic conditions. Nearby Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua also have advanced coffee production. What Honduras lacks is infrastructure and its reputation in the consumer market is not good enough. Hongguo is better known for commercial beans than boutique beans. No matter how good the quality is, there is no way to sell them at a good price. Many beans from Koban and Santa Barbara are mixed with fish eyes as Guatemala beans, and they are sold at the price of Guatemalan beans, and for a long time they are not aware of their own potential for the cultivation of high-quality coffee beans. The main problem is that coffee cherries are only slightly processed. It is sold to the processing plant when it is still wet, which often causes coffee cherries to become moldy and damaged before they are officially dried until the moisture content is only 12%. Such cherries become defective beans after drying. Since there is no relative price return for good quality, coffee farmers, processors and exporters have no incentive or incentive to increase costs to develop the potential for coffee cultivation, so that the end of Honduran coffee beans has become recognized as a mild mixed bean. rather than beans from a single origin or unique farm, this is a vicious circle.

But now it's different, with the help of USAID and Fintrac and several cooperatives like La Central, they try their best to promote and educate Macro bean farmers to produce good coffee, and then properly handle it to maximize the flavor of the final coffee. In addition, the Fair Trade Association (Fair Trade) funded the construction of processing equipment and increased the expertise of coffee farmers to gradually bring Honduran coffee out of the trough. It has become a burgeoning Central American coffee in the past year or two.

Honduras is as diverse as other producing countries, and I can't cover them all in one way. The largest producing area is Santa Barbara Santa Barbara, and there are other producing areas such as Copan Koban, Ocotepeque Ocotepec, Lempira Lompilla, La Paz Baz, and El Paraiso Periso in the south, which are planted at an altitude of 1500 meters to 2000 meters above sea level. Mainly grow extremely high sea beans (SHG) generally speaking, the Honduran coffee we have recently tested has low acidity, high sweetness and obvious caramel flavor, which is an excellent choice for espresso beans.

Population: 8250000

Although it is not described by HCAFE as a coffee growing area, many roasters label coffee from the Santa Barbara region of Honduras (Santa Barbara), and several coffee areas cross into Santa Barbara (a country's government ministry). Some would say that it needs its own description, but the more appropriate way seems to be to list the planting areas in accordance with official principles. There are also some excellent Pacas varieties from the Santa Barbara region, which are of good quality and have a unique and fruity flavor, which is definitely worth pursuing.

COPAN

The Copan producing area is located in the city of Copan in western Honduras, of which the most famous is the local Mayan site. The region is adjacent to Guatemala and regions like this remind me to attach importance to the actual origin of coffee rather than to producing countries. In fact, the division of countries is somewhat arbitrary, because it is difficult (unfortunately) for consumers to distinguish between coffee beans from Honduras or from Guatemala. Copan production area is located in the north of the Santa Barbara Coffee area.

Honduras-2006 C.O.E champion Manor Santa Mata Manor (Finca Santa Marta)

Madasano Manor-El Matazano, located between La Paz and Makala, owned by Francis Francisco Antonio Castillo David

Francis can reclaim coffee in 1995 and work with four families to plant and reprocess. The ferocious leaf embroidery disease in the past two years has reduced the yield by 50%, so we can only work harder to carry out disease control and stricter quality control.

This year, Mada Sano maintained an excellent tradition to win the Excellence Cup. Francis said that the level of beans participating in Honduras is so good that it is very difficult to enter the international evaluation stage and win. Thanks to the close cooperation of four family members, we can win the prize again.
