Honduras doesn't always get the credit it deserves in specialty coffee circles, but producers like Marysabel Caballero and Moisés Herrera have been making that case for over two decades. Third-generation farmers operating near Marcala, La Paz, they've earned top rankings in the Honduras Cup of Excellence multiple times, including first place in 2016. What makes El Puente particularly interesting is its structure: rather than one contiguous farm, Marysabel and Moisés manage 36 individual plots spread across four municipalities, each with its own microclimate and soil character. The SL28 variety grown here, more commonly associated with Kenya, thrives at 1,580 MASL and undergoes a clean washed process that preserves every bit of the terroir's expression. In the cup, that translates to blueberry and nectarine brightness lifted by a delicate elderflower note. It's the kind of coffee that earns a second cup before you've finished your first. Grab it while it's here.

Our Coffee Addicts Promise
We're passionate about fresh, flavourful coffee and we know you are too. For the best taste, enjoy your coffee within approximately 6 weeks of the roast date.
Coffee naturally oxidizes slowly over time, but it can still be enjoyed beyond this window. Any beans older than six weeks from roast are clearly marked and automatically discounted, giving you a great value on quality coffee.
