Coffee Blossom Honey Single Producer Limited Release - Otto Herrera
After the debut with Coffee Blossom Honey from Jorge Mendez they thought it would be difficult to find other honey producers. They learned that maybe not many beekeepers in the northwest mountains of Guatemala have a passion for it and are willing to do the hard work to produce a great product. This provides an additional source of revenue for many who depend on a volatile market and cyclical yields of an agricultural product such as coffee. Part of their mission is to support small producers in efforts to provide long term economic sustainability. Producing honey not only provides an additional source of revenue but it has the added value of increasing cross pollination and it is a liquid asset as a local consumable!
CBH's own farm Finca Vista Hermosa means “farm with a beautiful view”. Their beautiful view is of the valley where La Esperanza, or “the hope” is located.
Tasting notes: a subtle sweetness with delicate lavender notes. Pairs well with coffee, tea, cheese
