Cupping Honduran Coffees... - 7/13/2009
Posted By:   Eric Resch - Founder

This morning Steve and I had the chance to cup some fresh crop Honduran coffee from the CORAH Cooperative that I visited last January.  We still have a bit of work to do to find that right roast profile for this coffee, but it's going to be awesome when we get there!  Here's a blog post from my trip last year:

Stone Creek Coffee's owner and founder, Eric Resch, just recently returned from the lovely and enchanting country of Honduras--a land rich in cultural and coffee growing history. While there, he spent three days visiting microenterprises, including multiple coffee co-ops.

One such co-op is CORAH, located in the small village of Hoya Grande and founded in 2001 by twenty local families. During Eric's visit, he met with CORAH leaders and members to discuss the possibility of Stone Creek buying their coffee direct--an arrangement that would mean more money going straight to the farmers and their families.

The coffee produced by the CORAH co-op is certified organic and a new mill has just been constructed in the center of the village to handle processing.

Our hope is that, through a direct relationship, we can assist CORAH farmers and their families maintain a sustainable, organic coffee growing way of life that benefits us all. Cheers to that!
