Introduction to the Flower-scented Honduran Coffee Bean Grinding scale

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 (La Paz), Gongmayagua (Comayagua) and Olanqiu (Olancho), with an average height of over 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. The main varieties of high-quality coffee in Honduras, such as Typic, Bourbon, Caturra, Villa Sarch and Lempira, use the washing method to deal with the coffee beans, usually after soaking, the defective fruit will surface and can be discarded first. Then put the good fruit into the fruit peeling machine and peel off the peel with the rotating force of the machine. Peeled fruits are screened by machines to select fruits of high quality. Usually the bigger the fruit, the better the maturity. Coffee in Honduras is dried in the sun, so there is always a hint of fruit in the taste. Honduran coffee comes from El Salvador. At first coffee production was in a state of unavoidable heat 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. It was only after that that coffee production in Honduras really developed. Honduras now ranks second in coffee exports in China and the United States (second only to Guatemala), and coffee is mainly exported to the United States and Germany.

What is there to miss about coffee in this turbulent country? Honduran coffee does not have very distinctive characteristics. Its biggest feature is that the overall taste is rich and well-balanced.

Medium or shallow acidity, giving the impression of obvious but not strong. Sometimes it has a beautiful floral or fruity aroma (generally speaking, beans produced in different regions and at different elevations have different performances). It is not at all associated with the unrest of the country. Bitterness and obvious sweetness. The overall taste of Honduran coffee is balanced, sour and bitter are not so strong, and there is a good balance between the two.

The extremely balanced nature of Honduran coffee makes it a wide range of uses. Can be used to mix coffee, can also be used as a single product to brew, mixed with Honduran coffee Italian concentrate will have a surprising effect. Although in troubled times, coffee can also grow its own wonderful, it is not difficult to understand why so many people are so obsessed with this black liquid, to some extent, this is not a simple love or habit, coffee is a mood or rely on it. I hope this country will show its vitality and splendor as coffee as soon as possible. Tumultuous Honduras will have a future as bright as Honduran coffee.
