El Tucan Estate Coffee

Once our coffee has been harvested and we have purchased premium coffee from other local farms, it is exported to the USA. We fresh roast the coffee as orders are placed. The coffee is roasted four different ways. From medium to very dark, each roast has its own distinct flavor and aroma.

Roasts

Full City Roast

Our lightest roast, this deliciously mellow coffee has a fresh full body and a stimulating aroma. It’s sophisticated enough to be served with an elegant meal and mild enough to drink every morning.

Vienna Roast

Vienna Roast performs a delicate balancing act between Full City Roast and French Roast. The sweet bouquet generates a fine cup with its round acidity and rich coffee character.

French Roast

Roasted long enough to bring the natural oil of the coffee to the surface of the bean and is just a shade or so lighter than our Italian Roast. Its dark richness has a very balanced full body coffee flavor.

Italian Roast

The darkest of our four roasts, its hearty coffee flavor is bold and robust, but always smooth and never bitter.

Coffee Blends

We take our roasts and mix them together in our own secret recipes, creating four unique blends that will satisfy anybody’s quest for a great cup of coffee.

Anastacio's Blend (aka: Grandpa’s Blend)

Named in honor of Armando’s grandfather, this blend is a unique combination of roasts that offers a range of flavors from the mild mellow acidity of our Full City Roast, to the dark full body quality of French Roast. It’s crisp and zesty on one hand, while maintaining a rich, dark, smooth and satisfying coffee taste on the other.

La Cuesta Blend

We refer to La Cuesta Blend as our full spectrum blend. All of our roasts are included in this pleasing combination. Coffee lovers have the opportunity to experience and enjoy a broad range of delightful aromas and flavors.

Curt's Special Blend

The secret combination of roasts in Curt’s Special Blend creates a deliciously dark, full body flavor with just a touch of tangy zing. My friend, Curt, asked for something special, so I put this mixture together and we put it to the test. It passed the test so well, that we added it to our list of blends.

Rio Blanco Blend

This is our special mixture of dark roasts. The variety of flavors in this blend range from the sweet aromatic essence of our Vienna Roast to the dark bold richness of our Italian Roast. You will experience a coffee with a smooth rich taste and body to spare.

Decaf Coffee

Since we are still a little company, and it requires major expenditures to have coffee decaffeinated, we have decided, for now, to purchase a high quality decaf from our neighboring country to the north.

Guatemala Decaf
This great coffee has been decaffeinated by the swiss water process method so you don't have to worry about chemicals in your coffee. We roast it just long enough and dark enough to bring out the full coffee taste.

Our Green Coffee

We offer a selection of green coffees from Honduras in varying degrees of quality and quantity. In Honduras, coffees are categorized according to their elevation and preparation. Coffees grown at 1100+ meters above sea level are considered Strictly High Grown (SHG) and between 900 and 1100 meters the coffee is classified as High Grown (HG). The higher the coffee is grown, the better the quality and taste. Coffee that is thoroughly sorted, removing the majority of imperfections is known as European preparation (EP). Coffee not sorted as well is considered US preparation. All of the coffees we offer are EP unless our customer prefers a lesser quality coffee. We classify coffees grown on one farm and not mixed with others as estate coffee. The coffees we offer will be shade grown using sustainable methods without the use of pesticides, herbicides or fungicides.

The following is a list of our coffee classifications:
