Blind Assessment
The extremely dark roast (about as dark as roasts get) leaves hardly a trace of Honduras behind, just some anonymous burned tones, gentle and sweet until the finish, when the sweetness vanishes, leaving behind a salty astringency.
Notes
Grown, exported and roasted by a Honduras family-owned business. Visit
