About this Product
Roaster’s tasting notes: butterscotch, raisin, peach
Capucas was founded in 1999 by Jose Omar Rodriguez and takes its name from the local town of Las Capucas. In 2004 Omar was chosen to become the general manager, a role he continues today.
The coffee is harvested at its optimum ripeness and handed in at the cooperative. It is then washed, dried in a solar dryer, and stored in parchment before being trucked to the port of Puerto Cortés. Capucas were the first in the country to build a facility to dry microlots in a large scale with solar dryers.
Bird Friendly was created as a way to evaluate and distinguish coffee farms that retain important wildlife habitat as part of the land. Not only is this certified coffee deforestation free, it upholds the strictest criteria for biodiversity conservation in coffee-growing landscapes.
