Ilama - Honduras

Espresso
Sale price£11.00
We're delighted to offer this coffee as both a single origin and a new addition to our Guilty Pleasure blend. Thanks to our strong partnership with Langdon Coffee Merchants, and Benjamin Paz, who is based in Honduras, sourcing this coffee was a six-month journey that we can now celebrate. We couldn't be happier to have it in our hands, and for you all to try this delicious Honduran coffee. 
At the roastery, we found notes of white sugar, strawberry, butterscotch, toffee, making it a creamy, well rounded coffee on espresso, tasting especially sweet with milk.

Every Coffee Has A Story

Discover More | Ilama - Honduras

The country of Honduras is a well-suited location for growing and harvesting. The small country shares borders with Guatemala, Nicaragua, and El Salvador, regions that are also well-known for coffee production and share climates.

Over the past 20 years, significant backing from local governments providing new resources and infrastructure to farmers has seen Honduras become the single largest producer of coffee in Central America. Honduran producers are now beginning to focus on refining the quality of their coffee and potential for speciality lots from smaller, more remote areas.

This Ilama variety comes from a group of small-scale farms that reside among the mountain forests of Santa Barbara. The area plays host to the only existing lake in Honduras, Yojoa, which attracts a vibrant congregation of native wildlife and diverse vegetation. Stable weather conditions produce coffee with a consistent cup profile year after year in Ilama.

What Does Our Colour System Mean?

We categorise each coffee into a colour system that identifies the 'vibe' and general tasting notes of that category of coffee. It can also have a relation to what brewing method works best, the processes used to create it or the varietal of the actual bean. Watch the video below to hear from a member of the team on what exactly this colour represents.
