Introduction to the flavor and taste of coffee manor in Honduras the characteristics of Honduran coffee in Santa Barara manor

For coffee production, the geographical conditions of Honduras are no less than those of its neighboring coffee-producing countries such as Guatemala and Nicaragua. There are 280000 hectares of coffee plantations in Honduras, mainly small coffee plantations, most of which are less than 3.5ha. These coffee plantations account for 60% of the total coffee production in Honduras.

In the coffee garden, because the planting area belongs to the mountain area, people pick coffee beans by hand, and then process them carefully in order to produce better quality coffee beans. Honduras, which collects 3 million bags of coffee every year, is now one of the top 10 coffee exporters in the world. In Honduras, coffee producing areas are divided into six major producing areas, spread all over the west and south, namely, Santa Barbara (Santa Barbara), El Paraiso (El Paraiso), Copan (Koban), La Paz (Bazi) and Gongmaya (Comayagua) and Olan Qiu (Olancho). The average planting height is more than 1100 meters above sea level. Coffee varieties are Arabica, 69% are HG "High and low Coffee", 12% are SHG "Special Highland Coffee" and 19% are CS. There are mainly Typic, Bourbon, Caturra, Villa Sarch and Lempira.

So there are two kinds of very good quality coffee produced in Honduras, one is "Highland Coffee" growing at an altitude of 1000 to 1500 meters, and the other is the "selected Highland Coffee", which represents the highest level of Honduras, which grows at an altitude of 1500 to 2000 meters. Most of them are exported to the United States and Germany, although Honduran coffee does not have very distinctive characteristics. But the overall taste is rich and well-balanced is its biggest feature. In detail, it has a medium or shallow acidity, which is obvious but not strong. Sometimes with a slight floral or fruity aroma (generally speaking, different producing areas, different elevations of beans have different flavor performance) slightly bitter and obvious sweet. The overall taste of Honduras is balanced, sour and bitter are not strong, and the balance between the two is better. Therefore, the extremely balanced nature of Honduran coffee makes it widely used. It can not only be used to mix coffee, but also can be brewed as a single product. Honduran coffee can be mixed with Italian concentrate, which will show a commendable flavor.
