Honduras – San Vicente Finca Jazmin
This unique washed process bean is our first from Honduras. Bright and fruity, with floral accents, flavor notes of raspberry, white grape and melon are present, with more subtle notes of jasmine, orange and tropical fruit. For a Latin American bean it has a brightness more akin to an Ethiopian or Kenyan, and is a great way to wake up with a burst of flavor, timed particularly well for spring.
Hailing from a woman owned and operated 7 acre farm, this bean is grown at just over 5,000 feet, in the mountainous southwestern area of Honduras, in the Marcala growing region of La Paz. The owner, Nancy Hernandez Contreras, started picking coffee cherries alongside her father at just 8 years old, eventually learning how to process beans, and now operates her small farm and nearby cafes with her husband and daughters. Her lifelong coffee passion and abundant knowledge has culminated in the best farming, harvest and processing practices.
Finca Jazmin is comprised of a mix of Bourbon and Catuai varietals, they are hand picked, pulped and then dry fermented for around 22 hours. After washing, the coffee is raised on African beds where it is sun dried for 18-25 days.

Select optionsRumibamba – Organic – Washed
$21.00 – $105.00Our second offering from Peru, this one is an Organic bean, with a flavor profile of a classic South American roast, the one your mom and dad would have loved if third wave coffee existed back then. A mix of dark and milk chocolate, and caramelized sugar, are the clear flavor profiles with this Andes Mountain roast. There is nice secondary flavor of Turkish fig and Medjool dates, which makes for a nice balanced, if not mellow finish. If you aren’t quite ready for the bright, citrus flavors from Ethiopia, Kenya and Rwanda, this is the one to start with, especially if you take your mornings a little slow and easy.
These organic beans are grown in the Department of Cajamarca, located in the northwest of the country, in a town called San Ignacio. Cajamarca’s tradition of producing coffee beans dates to the 18th century, when coffee was first brought to the area to be grown. Located at between 4,500 to 5,100 feet in elevation, the town is charmingly known as the “land of coffee, honey and natural forests”. Interestingly, the town is located at nearly the identical distance from the equator as Ethiopian and Colombian coffee, albeit on the southern side of the divide.
Rumibamba is a washed process bean. The ripest cherries are selected by the over 2,400, typically small co-operative farmer/members of CENFRO. The small scale nature of most of the farmers results in manual de-pulping, home-built dryers and roadside parchment drying beds throughout the region of plantations.
