Honduras Coffee: A Rich Heritage

Honduras has been cultivating coffee for over two hundred years, beginning in 1804. Currently, the cultivation area reaches 280,000 hectares, predominantly managed by small coffee farmers. An impressive 92% of Honduran coffee farmers are small-scale individuals.

Most coffee plantations are smaller than 3.5 hectares, and these small farmers account for 60% of Honduras' total coffee production! Coffee is an extremely important crop in Honduras.

In the coffee plantations, farmers harvest red cherries, process them through washed fermentation and grading methods to meet market demands and satisfy consumers' diverse taste preferences.

Honduras harvests three million bags of coffee annually, supplying high-quality coffee with unique flavor profiles. The quantity is substantial and the quality is excellent! It has now become the largest coffee-producing country in Central America and ranks among the top ten coffee exporters globally.
