Honduras: 18 Rabbit Red, Marcala

Honduras Organic 18 Rabbit Red Marcala is a premium single-origin coffee produced by a female-owned collective dedicated to biodynamic and organic farming practices. Sourced from the Marcala region at 1,400 meters, this coffee undergoes a specialized red honey process, fermenting for twenty-four hours in cool night temperatures to develop its unique character. Roasted to a refined medium level, it features a heavy body with a smooth, juicy mouthfeel. The aroma is characterized by vibrant notes of strawberry, raspberry, and cherry, which carry over into the cup. The flavor profile is defined by a sophisticated balance of mild fruit notes, graham cracker, and walnuts, finishing with an intense sweetness. This foundational selection reflects the matriarchal heritage and intentional soil regeneration efforts of the Zelaya Ontreras family. Developed to highlight its well-rounded acidity and complex sweetness, it provides a consistent and aromatic cup suitable for versatile brewing methods. This offering represents a focused and pure taste of high-quality Honduran coffee, delivering a rich and velvety experience.
