Introduction to the Flavor description of Honduran Coffee beans and the characteristics of varieties

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 collects 3 million bags of coffee every year and provides you with multi-quality coffee. It has become one of the top ten coffee exporters in the world. So there are two kinds of very good quality coffee produced in Honduras, one is the "Highland Coffee" grown at an altitude of 1000 to 1500 meters, and the other is the "selected Highland Coffee", which represents the highest level in Honduras, growing at an altitude of 1500 to 2000 meters. Most of them are exported to the United States and Germany.

Although there are no distinct characteristics of Honduran coffee, 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. Can be used to mix coffee, can also be used as a single product to brew, with Honduran coffee mixed with Italian concentration will have a more admirable flavor display.
