☕ This Month’s Featured Coffee
Patrick Neal
Each month, we like to spotlight one coffee that will be shipping to all of our monthly subscribers — giving you a closer look at where your coffee comes from and the people behind it.
This coffee comes from the highlands of Honduras, a country that has quietly become one of Central America’s most respected coffee origins. With rich volcanic soil, high elevations, and generations of farming knowledge, Honduras consistently produces coffees that are both balanced and expressive.
What makes this lot especially meaningful is who grows it.
🌿 Behind the Beans
Gea is sourced primarily from women producers working within local cooperatives. These farmers play a vital role not only in coffee production, but in their families and communities — managing farms, processing coffee, and investing back into education and sustainability.
This coffee is part of the NKG Bloom program, an initiative designed to support small-scale farmers through training, long-term partnerships, and access to resources that help farms thrive year after year. It’s about building stability, not just buying coffee.
🌱 How It’s Grown & Processed
- Grown at high elevations (approximately 1,100–1,650 meters)
- Hand-harvested and fully washed
- Dried on patios and raised beds for clarity and consistency
These careful steps help highlight the coffee’s natural character in the cup.
🍒 What You’ll Taste
Expect a smooth, approachable cup with gentle brightness. You may notice notes of caramel, almond, toffee, apple, and apricot, with a clean finish that works beautifully for both filter and espresso brewing.
🤍 Why We Love Sharing This Coffee
Every bag represents early mornings, steep hillsides, cooperative teamwork, and a global supply chain that connects farmers directly to your kitchen. When you brew this coffee, you’re tasting more than flavor — you’re tasting intention and care.
