PRODUCER

This is the first year we've purchased coffee from this gentleman and the first time we're featuring Honduras from a region other than Santa Barbara. Carlos is one of the co-founders of Cafesmo, a company that helps Ocotepeque producers produce higher scoring arabicas and export them abroad. So there we go!

PACKAGING

The coffee is packed in a brown jar made of PET, 100% recyclable or reusable. In case you're thinking "oh no, plastic!", bear in mind that standard coffee packaging is also made of plastic (and a few other materials, making it often harder to recycle). We also thought about glass, but it's heavier, more expensive, breakable and, wait for it, has the same or greater (sic!) environmental impact! A plastic jar turns out to be pretty eco-friendly, just remember to put it in the right container, or find a creative way to reuse it at home.
