This coffee is from Honduras, produced by Danny Moreno, the son of Daniel Moreno who previously farmed El Campo. The primary variety is Pacas, a bourbon mutation. The flavor profile features silky milk chocolate as the base, with sweet plum and pear-like characteristics. When prepared as espresso, it exhibits an almost berry-like acidity and a long lingering sweet finish like caramel. The coffee is flexible in brewing and yields delicious cups across many brewing styles and formats.
