Introduction of coffee flavor and taste characteristics of Santa Barara Manor in Honduras with slight floral aroma

Honduras declared its independence on September 15, 1821, but was incorporated into the first Mexican Empire in 1822. He joined the Central American Union in 1823 and withdrew from the Central American Union in October 1838 to establish a republic. In 1840, with the support of Guatemalan dictator Rafael Carrera, conservative Francisco Ferreira established a dictatorship. After 1853, liberals and conservatives in Honduras often had coups and civil wars, and the regime changed frequently. The gold and silver mining industry has been damaged, which has greatly affected the economic development. Since the 1840s, Britain occupied eastern Honduras and the Baya Islands, built railways and obtained the concession of large tracts of land.

From its independence in 1821 to 1978, Honduras has had 139 coups, making it one of the countries with the most frequent coups in Latin America. Ramon Villeda Morales of the Liberal Party won the 1957 general election as president. Oswaldo Lopez Arellano, commander of the armed forces, launched a coup instigated by the United States in 1963, overthrew the Morales regime, and was elected president in 1965. Ramon Ernesto Cruise of the Kuomintang won the election in 1971, but soon after taking office, Arellano staged another coup. In 1975 Juan Alberto Melgar Castro, commander of the armed forces, staged a coup to replace Arellano. In 1978, Policarpo Pasgarcia, commander of the armed forces, launched a coup and formed a military committee headed by him.

Its Honduran coffee comes from El Salvador. Coffee production was lukewarm at first until the frost in Brazil in 1975. At that time, Brazil was badly hit and coffee production plummeted, while Honduras took the opportunity to "take the top". Coffee production soared from 500000 bags to 1.8 million bags and was ransacked. Since then, coffee production in Honduras has really developed. Although Honduran coffee does not have very distinct characteristics, its biggest feature is its rich and balanced taste as a whole. 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 used as a single product to brew it. With Honduran coffee mixed with Italian concentrate, it will show a commendable flavor. 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 total coffee production in Honduras. In Honduras, coffee producing areas are divided into six major producing areas, spread to the west and south, namely Santa Barbara (Santa Barbara), El Paraiso (El Paraiso), Copan (Copan), La Paz (Bazi) and Gongmayagua (Comayagua) and Olanqiu (Olancho), with an average planting height of more than 1100 meters above sea level.
