Comayagua, Honduras – Fresh Crop 2017

Description

This diverse coffee region is located primarily in Comayagua, a forested area high in the mountains that’s known for being the most productive coffee-growing department in Honduras. Here, the red clay soils provide the nourishment and porosity for optimal plant growth. Coffee production is a multi-generation tradition, and farmers grow coffee in nearly every possible micro-climate. The result: unbelievably complex coffees. A true community effort, Guama Danta Reserve is produced by more than 87 smallholder farmers.
