The coffee:
��I want to cry with emotion, It��s my dream come true��
I met Rosely in the spring of 2018, as she was one of the hosts when I visited Ocotopeque where she is based. She is a member of AMPROCAL, a women��s co-operative founded in 2007 in Pashapa La Labor. It��s in Western Honduras, bordering Guatemala and El Salvador, so it��s a corner of Central America that produces coffees I really enjoy.
Originally, the co-op was founded by just 8 women, with a goal to strengthen the presence of female producers in the area. It��s since grown to 86 members.
This coffee is a microlot from the co-operative, taken from Rosely��s farm, Finca Terra Nuova (new land.)
The farm is a family effort. Rosely and her husband work the farm and Rosely herself is responsible for marketing.
When I spoke to her about launching her coffee, she said:
��I want to cry with emotion, It��s my dream come true��
This coffee is a selection of catimor varietals. These are plants which are descended from a rare hybrid between Arabica and Robusta. As a result, they are resistant to many pests and diseases, including the dreaded leaf rust.
This coffee is perfect for those who enjoy their coffee with some body, structure and intensity - it forms the backbone to many of our espresso blends, and it��s the ideal platform for coffee with a touch of milk.
On its own, you��ll taste dark chocolate, red grape and caramel with a walnut finish.
I��m so proud to be able to share this coffee with you, and I know just how much it means to Rosely and her family that she will have her name on the box when it arrives in your hands.
