The Story Behind the Cup

This September, Yahava brings you a vibrant natural-processed coffee from the steep, cool hills of Montecillos, Honduras. Grown by Ernelio Ortiz at Finca El Pedrero, this coffee is a blend of IHCAFE 90 and Catuai varietals grown at 1750 MASL. It’s processed using anaerobic fermentation, where ripe cherries are sealed and fermented before drying—a method that deepens the coffee's fruit complexity and body. 

Expect a rich, syrupy profile bursting with fresh berry and cooked blueberry notes, balanced with mellow caramelizing sweetness and juicy acidity. This is a beautifully layered coffee, reflective of the growing momentum for high-end specialty offerings out of Honduras. It’s traceable, unique, and loaded with character.

What Is Special About Specialty Estate Coffee?

As the name suggests, Yahava’s Specialty Estate Coffee is a limited release of new coffees we have recently discovered. Yahava source these micro-lot coffees in small quantities and only when available. We scour the entirety of the world's coffee-belt for these gems.

Can I Get Another Batch Of Specialty Estate Coffee?

Depending on availability, you may be able to get another bag of a Specialty Estate Coffee before the end of the month, but you will need to be quick. Because they are 'monthly' limited-edition coffee beans, we suggest ordering as soon as you’ve taken a liking to the roast.

Will You Be Selling These Coffee Beans Again Or Are They Only A One-Time Thing?

At Yahava, we welcome your feedback, and if we hear of a coffee that is popular, we will try to secure more. This is not always possible because of the size of the harvests and our ability to secure more. The very nature of a micro-lot Speciality Estate Coffee makes it special and very difficult to obtain.
