Origin Story: 

Belen Gualcho is the name of a small village in the Ocotepeque department of Honduras. With a population of about 16,000 people, the village is a true jewel located in the middle of the Honduran mountains not far from our own family coffee farms.   

 

We first came across this delicious coffee when Jesus Mata, a local coffee farmer, heard about our family farm, Finca Terrerito (Finca T). Jesus was interested in learning more about our commitment to treating farmers fairly and focusing on helping the communities we partner with, so he decided to go out on a limb and make the journey to Finca T to introduce himself and his coffee to our team.  

 

After a cupping that blew our farm team away, our farm director, Marcial, made the trip to visit the coffee farms in Belen Gaulcho to see their operations first hand and verify their use of sustainable practices. Thanks to Jesus, we were able to get our hands on this delicious coffee from a group of 7 farmers (including Jesus) that have on average 1 to 2 acres each.  

 

Roast Story: 

Grown at 1,700 meters above sea level, Belen Gaulcho is one of our more high-altitude coffee offerings. With denser and more complex beans, we experimented with a range of different light roasts until we landed on one that beautifully accentuated the delicious tasting notes of this coffee. Belen Gualcho is a coffee for you If you love acidity and complexity of natural flavor in your coffee.

Understanding Grind Types

Whole Bean

Maximize your coffee experience by grinding your own whole beans. The flexibility of a grinder allows you to grind fresh and specifically for your brewing device. It's one extra step, but trust us, it is so worth it ;)

Best For: All Methods

Regular/Keurig (Ground)

This fine-medium grind is perfect for drip machines, keurigs, or aeropresses. It is the most commonly used size, making it a safe option when gifting coffee to a friend or if you are unsure of what grind type to get.

Best For: Drip Machines, Keurig Machines, Aeropress

Chemex (Ground)

For Chemex enthusiasts, the coffee grind is coarser compared to other pour over options. This grind size is ideal due to thicker Chemex filters, which slow down water during extraction.

Best For: Chemex

Pour Over (Ground)

This medium-coarse grind is ideal for fans of pour overs like the V60. For optimal results, we recommend using with paper filters.

Best For: Pour Overs (Not Chemex)

French Press (Ground)

Perfect for any submersion brewing methods such as the french press or cold brew. This extra coarse grind will be the perfect grind for you!

Best For: French Press, Cold Brew

Espresso (Ground)

Ideal if you have an espresso machine but not recommended! If you are looking for espresso fine coffee, please take note that we recommend you purchase an espresso grinder and do not recommend purchasing coffee ground for espresso from us. Although we will do it, calibration is key to a perfect shot of 'spro. There are over 20 options in espresso finely ground coffee and we'll grind based on what works best on our espresso machine for the day.
