The country is a veritable cornucopia of flavors, elevations, micro-climates, and varieties, which means our offerings from the origin are also distinctive. This coffee will not taste like El Rincon, which, in turn, did not taste like Marta Vasquez. Plus, this lot is 100% Parainema variety. Parainema is a Honduran pedigree selection from the Sarchimor family, bred for resistance to leaf rust and pests. It needs a lot of soil nutrition, but it’s well-adapted to medium altitudes. This is especially useful for third-generation producer Balbina, whose farm sits at just 1300 masl.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eWe are excited to welcome back another Small Planes perennial to our menu, Balbina Sabillon. Similar to last year, we feature her Paraneima variety selection and have begun to notice some unique characteristics with this variety. In no way, can you box varieties into extremely specific profiles (especially as climate changes, processing adaptations, etc. occur) but we can certainly notice trends. Balbina’s Paraneima comes to us with a very welcomed fruity, herbal and spicy quality. This year’s lot in particular is balanced popping with mulberry and baking spices. A syrupy body with a florality that reminds us of black tea makes this coffee that much more enjoyable. As it cools, black tea becomes herbal like sarsaparilla root while the berry acidity becomes candied lime. \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eImported by: Collaborative Coffee Source\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Small Planes","offers":[{"title":"Grocery Case","offer_id":40516693000274,"sku":"SP-GC-005","price":59.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/smallplanescoffee.mom\/products\/balbina-sabillon-grocery-case","provider":"Small Planes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
