Honduras El Puente Catuaí Varietal Lot

The Catuaí variety was first introduced to Honduras in 1979, and for a time was thought to account for nearly half of all Arabica coffee grown in the country. It’s a variety valued for its high output and comforting flavor profile, though its cup quality depends significantly on its climate and cultivation. Marysabel and Moisés are trusted across the globe for their demonstrated ability to produce exceptional coffees of all varieties. We are excited to showcase this Catuaí lot alongside their prized Gesha as testament to the caliber of El Puente’s operations.

Marysabel is a fourth-generation coffee farmer, Moisés a renaissance man who originally worked for a Guatemalan coffee exporter. In addition to operating a world-class specialty farming operation spanning over three dozen individual farms in the La Paz region, they run their own dry mill that processes all their coffees, affording them even greater oversight on the quality of their exports.

Between them, Marysabel and Moisés possess a wealth of knowledge and experience, not to mention enormous warmth and sincerity. Their unstoppable determination toward excellence, their willingness to experiment in order to drive the industry forward, and their genuine passion for specialty coffee cultivation make it our great honor to roast their coffees again this season.
