About

Our fair trade, organic Honduran Marcala coffee highlights the nutty and bright complexities that make coffee beans from Honduras so excellent. With additional flavor notes of milk chocolate, you get a smooth and sugary-sweet body with an acidic lemon wedge finish.

Honduras has a full deck when it comes to coffee production, soaring altitudes, beautiful weather and perfect soil. With updated farming techniques and more modern agricultural standards being set, Honduran coffees from areas like Marcala rival high grown Guatemalan coffees in flavor and body. The fair trade premiums for this particular coffee help to fund local teacher's salaries and buys supplies for schools in the area.
