Coffee Process

Process

Washed

Varietal

Lempira, Ih90, Caturra

Elevation

1,200-1,650 masl

This coffee is washed processed, which involves removing the fruit from the coffee cherry before drying the bean. After harvesting, the cherries are pulped to separate the outer skin and most of the fruit. The beans are then fermented in water to break down any remaining mucilage, rinsed clean, and finally dried in the sun.

PRODUCER

Raul Rodgriguez

Region

Tres Piños, Comayagua, Honduras

Raul Rodriguez is a third-generation coffee producer living with his wife and three dogs on Finca Santa Lucia, a remote farm nestled in the cloud forests of Montaña de La Choca, Honduras. He inherited the farm from his father, Don Ermenegildo Rodriguez, a pioneer who introduced varietals like Yellow Bourbon and Caturra to the region. Raul continues that legacy with a focus on quality and sustainability—experimenting with new varietals, operating an organic reserve, and paying the region’s highest wages. This year, he’s donating part of his profits to help rebuild the local school, furthering his commitment to both people and place.

FAQ

Can my coffee be ground?

By you? Yes. By us, sadly, no. Currently, we can only ship whole-bean coffee.
When will my order ship?

Freshness is critical to fully enjoying coffee. We roast to order to ensure your coffee is at peak freshness when it arrives. We roast to order and ship Monday-Thursday. Orders are usually fulfilled the production day after they are placed (for example, orders placed on Monday will ship on Tuesday). Orders placed Thursday-Sunday will be fulfilled and shipped on Monday.
What if my package is delayed?

Sometimes our shipping partners experience delays due to weather, heightened demand, technical issues, pandemics, or aliens. All of which is out of our hands, except the aliens, but that's not for here.

If your package is delayed, let us know and we'll track it down and escalate its delivery. If it's delayed more than 2 weeks past the shipment date, and your order includes coffee, we'll either refund your money or ship you fresh coffee at no cost.
Can this item be returned?

For all non coffee or tea items, a full refund can be requested if the items are unused within 30 days of delivery. To start a refund, email us at info@methodicalcoffee.com and we'll get your taken care of.
