This coffee is from Finca El Matazano, a five-hectare family farm located in the Sierra de Montecillos region of Honduras at 1,450 meters altitude. The coffee is grown in a shaded environment surrounded by fruit and timber trees. It features a flavor profile characterized by sweet pear drop notes, a clean citrus acidity reminiscent of dry white wine, and a smooth, mellow finish with balanced chocolate notes.
Hard Lines started as a small Aeropress pop up bar serving filter coffee in Cardiff and grew over several years into one of Wales's best known specialty roasters. The roastery operates out of Gwaelod y Garth, on the edge of the Brecon Beacons, using two Loring eco friendly roasters: an S35 Kestrel and an S15 Falcon. They run three locations in the Cardiff area, including a café in Penylan inspired by Italian neighbourhood coffee bars. The offering rotates with seasonal fresh crop arrivals, and the brand's distinctive smiley face identity was developed with designer Cadilane.
