Coffee from Honduras's Intibucá region is renowned for its subtle acidity and fruit forward flavour, so we’re super excited to try this washed microlot from Francisco Velasquez, whose farm El Durazno is located in Masaguara.

Francisco’s passion for quality coffee saw him become a member of the Intibucá project, which offers farmers skill-sharing, training and access to exporters with the hopes of improving specialty coffee in this region and improving its traceability, something that roasters like Round Hill value highly. This pathway also ensures that there is a future market for coffees from Intibucá, encouraging more farmers in the community to switch to specialty coffee production.

This microlot coffee instantly caught our eye, with tasting notes of lime, hibiscus and cane sugar offering clean, sweet flavour that we can’t wait to brew with a Chemex.
