Working directly with the premier Honduras exporter, Molinos de Honduras, was founded in 1960, is the oldest coffee exporter in Honduras. Since 2013 they have shifted their purchase strategy, reducing middlemen and purchasing directly from individual coffee producers. This has allowed them to provide us with predictable high quality and traceable coffee while at the same time providing coffee producers with fairer prices in comparison to middlemen prices. Ninety percent of our coffee is bought directly from producers and producer organisations.

Strategic alliances with NGOs like TechnoServe and Swiss Contact have been a key component in their work to improve coffee producers’ livelihoods through fairer prices. Technician staff are on the ground in all the strategic coffee regions providing producers with technical assistance, training on all sustainability objectives, coffee collection, finance recovery and certifications.

Copan Region coffees predominate with a heavier and creamy body with fruity sweetness.

Cupping notes: nice clean cup, citrus acidity, caramel notes, lemon tea and toasted nuts, well balanced.
