Producer info and cup notes:
In the town of Valle de Angeles in the Francisco Morazon department of Honduras, sits Finca Liquidambar at 1,650masl. Liquidambar is a small family operation managed by 4 members. Despite its small size, the cup quality has become renowned around the world, placing top 30 in the 2023 Honduran Cup of Excellence. While Liquidambar is typically known for their incredible honey processed coffees, this washed Parainema stood out on the cupping table for its high intensity, bright, and clear acidity, with a delicate floral and sweet background. In the cup, we find a beautifully complex dance of malic and citric acidity, reminding us of Fuji apples and limoncello. As it cools, a syrupy sweet body comes into full focus, carrying with it a delicate florality like a raw wildflower honey.
