Honduras San Juan Sitio 1 Washed Bourbon Specialty Coffee Beans: Growing Conditions, Geographic Location, and Climate

Because Honduras is located in a tropical region, San Juancito experiences minimal temperature variations throughout the year. Therefore, what is considered winter is actually the rainy season, while what is considered summer is actually the dry season. In tropical regions, altitude has a greater impact on temperature than the timing of rainfall throughout the year. San Juancito's geographical location at an elevation of over 1,239 meters above sea level makes the temperature feel slightly cool throughout all seasons. During the summer months (March-June), the highest temperatures often reach around 26°C, while the lowest temperatures average about 18°C. In winter, the average high temperature is 20°C, with lows around 14°C.

The modern economy of San Juancito largely depends on agriculture, with most of it being small-scale coffee production. Its climate and altitude are highly favorable for producing high-quality coffee beans. COMISAJUL, a cooperative organization of hundreds of small coffee farmers in central Honduras, is located in San Juancito. COMISAJUL is a cooperative organized by several hundred coffee farmers in the San Juancito region, where coffee is grown on mountains at elevations of 1,450-1,550 meters, shaded by fruit trees such as bananas, avocados, and papayas. During the harvest season, coffee farmers hand-pick ripe fruits, which are then processed using the washed method and sun-dried. The fermented water containing coffee pulp and skin from the washing process is collected and used as fertilizer for the coffee trees. This batch of coffee has a very clean taste, high sweetness, very gentle acidity, and features milk chocolate flavors.

San Juancito is a small village in central Honduras, located 40 kilometers northeast of the Honduran capital, Tegucigalpa. The town is part of the Francisco Morazán jurisdiction, which also includes Nuevo Rosario, Guacamaya, and Plan Grande, with a total population of approximately 1,400.

Although San Juancito was historically famous for its mineral deposits, today it stands out for its location within the buffer zone of La Tigra National Park—a rainforest ecosystem and also Honduras' first national park. The park serves as a massive watershed, providing drinking water for the capital's 500,000 residents.
