This Honduran coffee is organic, shade grown, and Rainforest Alliance Certified and comes from Finca San Antonio in the town of San Andreas.
This 19 acre farm sits between 5,000-6,000 ft above sea level and is surrounded by mountains and pine forest. San Andreas is a small municipality in the state of Lempira and consists of around 15,000 people, primarily of the Lenca tribe, a Mesoamerican indigenous people.
The Lempira region is famous for developing its own strain of coffee variety, which is a shorter and more compact bush created to endure the warmer and more humid climate.
