Process

washed

Not stated

region, farm or estate, producer, variety, altitude, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Where each fact came from

Flavour families

Leaving the fruit on longer gives the cup its sweetness and depth: tropical fruit and dried peach, a bright citrus edge, honeycomb sweetness and a soft floral finish… part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Country of origin

“Finca El Chollo sits at 1,450 metres in Quilaperque, La Paz, in a high, cloudy part of Honduras locals call the land of "coffee from the clouds."” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Processing

“Most Honduran coffee is washed.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Tasting notes

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
