Honduras Bandisi Farm Mi Bendicion

What many people don't know is that Honduras produces amazing coffee,

Since 2011 Honduras has overtaken Guatemala to become the world's seventh largest coffee producer (Guatemala 10th)

All the big coffee countries ahead of it include Brazil, Vietnam, Indonesia, Colombia and India.

Honduras is not only the largest coffee producer in Central America, but also the second largest in the world if only washed Arabica beans are counted!

It wasn't until the end of the last century and the beginning of the twenty-first century that coffee overtook bananas as the most important cash crop.

Banana production is dominated by big American companies, but coffee is grown by small farmers.

Honduras has an estimated 110,000 coffee farmers, with hand-picking cherries being the main method of harvesting.

Mi Bendicion is a small farm located in the Intibuca province of Honduras owned by Victoria Cocepcion, with an area of only 2.5 hectares, producing only 25 bags of Lempira per year, and Colonna buys most of it.

This variety is a branch of Catimor. It is a unique disease resistant bean variety in Honduras. It has high yield, short plant, easy harvest, and strong resistance to leaf rust. It is suitable for planting in warmer climate and acidic soil. It is widely welcomed by Honduran farmers.

Caturra is a hybrid developed by Portugal scientists in the 1950s. It is a hybrid of Caturra and Time Hybrid. It has high yield and strong disease resistance. It is the most common variety in the world at present. However, in the past, Katim's flavor evaluation was not high, and it was thought that it was a product of compromise for disease resistance, which was difficult to be elegant. But as growing techniques improve and treatments refine, whether Castillo in Colombia, Sarchimor in Costa Rica, or Katim in Yunnan or Thailand, cup scores often surprise, as do purebred Arabica. Castillo from Colombia won the COE championship, while a sweet maple farm in Colonna won the 6th COE in Honduras. The flavor potential of the disease resistant bean seed is not small.

This washed lotus bira coffee is round and complex, showing praline and light spices, with fruit juice, red apple and honeysuckle flower flavors.
