One of our owners, Kyle, first met Benjamin back in 2015 through a mutual friend (Kevin Bohlin, the mastermind behind Saint Frank Coffee in San Francisco - we can't recommend them enough!). Benjamin's mission to help roasters buy high-grown, single-producer, and (often) single-variety lots from the Santa Barbara region of Honduras has resulted in a beautiful and fruitful relationship with us, and we are so honored to call him one of our dearest friends in coffee.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS |\u003c\/strong\u003e After being handpicked at peak ripeness, the coffee cherries are transported to the wet mill and hand-sorted for quality. They are fermented for 48 hours in blue barrels. Then, they are put in a solar dryer for 18 days, where they are constantly agitated to ensure uniform drying. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP | \u003c\/strong\u003eThis coffee really toes the line between fermentation impact and approachability. It's certainly a \"fermentation-forward\" cup, but not so crazy or funky as to deter certain palettes. Think black grapes and red wine, but not quite sangria. It has a smoothness and sweetness about it that's reminiscent of milk chocolate, making it one of the more approachable anaerobic naturals on the cupping table. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e___________________________________________________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin | \u003c\/strong\u003eLa Leona, \u003cspan\u003eSanta Barbara, Honduras\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer |\u003c\/strong\u003e Benjamin Paz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFarm |\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e La Leona\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess |\u003c\/strong\u003e Anaerobic Natural\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety |\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Bourbon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElevation |\u003c\/strong\u003e 1550 masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"12oz","offer_id":49171360907577,"sku":"","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":49171360940345,"sku":"","price":62.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":49171360973113,"sku":"","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2988\/2574\/files\/Benjamin_Paz_Red_Bourbon_Natural_Retail.png?v=1718386204","url":"https:\/\/www.blackwhiteroasters.mom\/products\/r-benjamin-paz-red-bourbon-natural","provider":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
