This Black Honey processed Red Bourbon is a sweet and fruity coffee with notes of baked apple, dates and brown sugar. We've roasted it fairly light to make it perfect for a filter brew but it will work well for lower pressure espresso setups too.
The history of Café Tuxpal traces back to 1905, when José Rosa Pacas bought his first farm in the Apaneca-Ilamatepec Mountain range - Finca San Rafael. A still active volcano in the west of the country, Ilamatepec does not only provide a rich and fertile soil, but also a microclimate with dry winters and warm summer in a country dominated with tropical weather. José planted coffee trees from the Bourbon varietal, and, a few generations later, coffee still runs in the family blood.
