【Note】
This beans were on "Cupping California" at SFMoMA, Aug. 2012.  This bag was brought in Nov. 2012 with a note, "limited" and forgotten to be posted since then.  Is this available in  Four Barrel now?  Well, there are always some Honduran beans, I am sure, but it is difficult to guarantee.
This specific Honduran beans gives astonishing flavor.  Hope this will be on the regular menu list.
