Honduras La Lesquinada

Story

Complex, sweet, and satisfying, Honduras La Lesquiñada offers silky notes of meringue at the start, soon followed by notes of bright crisp pear and caramelized tamarind coating your palate. 

While pursuing a college degree in agriculture, Sergio Romero spent much of his time tending to his father's coffee farm, La Lesquiñada. Located in Corquín along the western side of Honduras (where some of the country’s finest coffees are produced), La Lesquiñada was inherited by Sergio after he finished his education. Together with his brother Walter, Sergio runs the family farm and continues the region’s tradition of producing high-quality coffees. As third-generation farmers, the Romero brothers have dedicated their efforts beyond their family business and now focus on improving the region’s coffee producing industry as a whole. Since inheriting the family farm, the Romero brothers have founded Cafico (Cafes Finos Corquin), an organization that partners with producers to advocate for greater socio-economic development, transparency in operations, and sustainable farming practices. Cafico helps producers utilize the best farming practices, both environmentally and socially, to consistently produce top-quality coffees. As a result, the Romero brothers and Cafico have transformed Corquín into one of the most prolific coffee-producing regions in Honduras. We are very excited to bring you this offering. Enjoy!
