MERLIN MEDINA

Tasting notes: Almond, Chamomile, Apricot Jam

It’s that time of the year again when Honduran coffees make their way back into our selection, and we’re excited to introduce this new lot from Merlin Medina.

Merlin began her finca after her husband, Hubert, entrusted her with a portion of his own farm. Today, together, they manage four small farms totaling 10.5 hectares.

Both are key figures in the specialty coffee scene of Marcala. Beyond producing exceptional coffees, they also operate a cupping laboratory where they bring local producers together, offering services to expand their knowledge and connect them with new potential buyers.

Merlin holds a special place in our hearts. We first had the pleasure of meeting her at the SCA Expo in 2024, and the following year we visited her cupping lab. Beyond this personal connection, we chose her coffee for its remarkable clarity — a clean cup with delicate notes of almond and chamomile, beautifully lifted by a fruity hint of apricot jam.

Enjoy !
