Tropical fruit, red berries and white chocolate. A sweet, fruity coffee with syrupy acidity and a silky body.
For the first time, we are adding a coffee from Honduras to the NOKORA selection. It comes from Finca La Herencia, in the department of La Paz, a mountainous region in the centre-west of the country where fertile soils, altitude and a mild climate favour the growing of quality coffee.
Behind this lot is Williams Gómez, the first generation of his family to work in coffee. His relationship with coffee farming began when he was young, growing up near the farm of a childhood friend's grandfather. That experience sparked his interest in the land and, over time, it became both a profession and a life project. Since then, Williams has developed his own way of working, combining learning and experimentation to better understand the potential of each variety and process. His goal is to keep growing, find direct buyers and turn his farm into a source of jobs and opportunities for the people involved in production.
This lot is made up of the Parainema variety and is processed using the Honey method. The cherries are hand-picked at peak ripeness and then processed dry, without using water. The coffee then undergoes a controlled 42-hour fermentation in GrainPro bags and continues drying on patios, where the process is carefully monitored. Williams has been working with this same micro-lot for several years, refining how he handles it and experimenting to achieve ever higher quality.
In the cup, a fruity, enzymatic fragrance stands out, with notes of tropical fruit and red berries over a base of white chocolate. Sweet spices round out the profile, adding nuance without overshadowing its fruity character. Sweetness is very present and carries a complete cup, with syrupy acidity and a silky body that give it an enveloping texture.
The Parainema variety adds another point of interest to this new arrival. It is a variety developed in Honduras from the Sarchimor group, whose history is linked to the search for agronomic traits such as leaf rust resistance and productive potential. Having it in this lot lets us discover a variety we had not yet brought to NOKORA, through a coffee that stands out for its sweet, fruity and balanced profile.
With La Herencia we are debuting both a new origin and a new variety in our selection. A Honduran coffee that combines tropical fruit, red berries, white chocolate and sweet spices in an expressive, silky cup, and that brings us closer to the work and experimentation of Williams Gómez.
