“Sweet Tooth” Espresso Las Manos
Price range: $25.00 through $150.00
The anti-blend made for espresso adventurers, our Sweet Tooth offering changes several times throughout the year.
In the mountains above Lake Yojoa, among the Cielito community of the Santa Barbara Department of Honduras, lay Santos Alexis Domínguez’s farm, Las Manos. Here, at around 1550 MASL, she grows predominantly Pacas and a small amount of Typica variety coffee trees. On her small farm, cherries are depulped in small batches before undergoing fermentation in a single tile-lined tank. As she works to expand her farm each year, we excitedly wait for each new harvest to taste some of the best coffees produced in Honduras.
