One really nice perk about being a coffee expert and writing monthly reviews is that I get awesome coffee from all over the world that I normally wouldn’t have access to. Some companies send me samples to review and my network of world-traveling friends also send me goodies from time to time.
My good friend and fellow life coach Tim West sent me several packages of Honduran Cafe Oro coffee. It’s one thing to buy single origin coffee from the grocery store. It’s quite another to get it from the source. If you enjoy good coffee I always recommend buying some on your vacations. You’re also more than welcome to send me some as well. Not only is the coffee closer to the farm but the packaging is also cool. After I emptied them out I framed the bags for my coffee wall.
Thanks Tim! You can check him out right HERE.
Thanks David! That is some good coffee. You got me in the mood to have a cup or three!
Allow me to make you Jealous. It’s a six-minute walk from my house to a restaurant I’ve only just recently started visiting. It’s a Honduran restaurant and what did I see there but a bag of this stuff and I’m about to have it for the first time. How awesome that I can just walk there and get this whenever I want!
That sounds marvelous. Consider your mission accomplished. I’m jealous!
Thanks buddy. I mean, thanks for being jealous. TWO things accomplished today. 😛
Cafe Oro is awesome! A strong coffee without the bitter taste of others I have tried. I always buy it at http://www.honduras.net
this is my absolute favorite coffee…I haven’t been everywhere, but I have been in a lot of places. I am just mad that I didn’t bring MORE of it back from Honduras when I left. I actually had bought a bunch of the packs to give out to friends, but ended up keeping most of them…just so good…haha
I know how you feel. I often bring coffee back from trips as gifts but never give them away.
I first drank this coffee in Roatan, and I brought several bags home to Arizona with me. Now I have to buy this coffee on line – I can’t drink any other brand of coffee!!. I’m ruined!! (…or am I saved??!!)
Ahh yes, the combined blessing and curse of finding that perfect thing!
How do you brew this stuff? I just brought some from Roatan and I tried brewing a package. I couldn’t even smell it brewing in my automatic drip coffee maker.
Some people find this brand a little weak. I’d recommend brewing it double-strength.
