Although it is not described by HCAFE as a coffee growing area, many roasters label coffee from the Santa Barbara region of Honduras (Santa Barbara), and several coffee areas cross into Santa Barbara (a country's government ministry). Some would say that it needs its own description, but the more appropriate way seems to be to list the planting areas in accordance with official principles. There are also some excellent Pacas varieties from the Santa Barbara region, which are of good quality and have a unique and fruity flavor, which is definitely worth pursuing.
COPAN
The Copan producing area is located in the city of Copan in western Honduras, of which the most famous is the local Mayan site. The region is adjacent to Guatemala and regions like this remind me to attach importance to the actual origin of coffee rather than to producing countries. In fact, the division of countries is somewhat arbitrary, because it is difficult (unfortunately) for consumers to distinguish between coffee beans from Honduras or from Guatemala. Copan production area is located in the north of the Santa Barbara Coffee area.
