Coffee Information

About the farmer

José Eleodoro Castellanos Tejada has been working with coffee since childhood and has partnered with Aldea Development since 2013. Passionate about his craft, he believes his coffee is among the best in Honduras. His dream is to keep improving his farm and support his son’s education, ensuring a bright future for the next generation.

How to brew

Eleodoro Castellanos’ coffee, with its clean, complex, and comforting profile, shines when brewed with a Kalita Wave. The flat-bottom design encourages an even extraction, highlighting the tea-like clarity while balancing the deep orange citrus and roasted nut notes. The result is a smooth, structured cup with a delicate sweetness and refined complexity.

Online orders are packaged to ship on Tuesdays and Fridays. No matter when you place your order, it will ship within 4 days.

We are currently roasting full days, Monday through Friday. So, yes! Your coffee should be freshly roasted, and ready to drink upon receiving. Our roastery team is incredibly mindful about ensuring your coffee will be at its best when it arrives to you.

Whew, this is a question! Aldea is different for 3 main reasons. 

First, Aldea grew out of a non-profit organization working in Honduras. Through this relationship, we can purchase coffee directly from the farmer and pay our farmers at a minimum, 50% above fair-trade. 

Second, we roast our coffee in small batches of 15 pounds at a time. This allows us to have more control over our profiles, and maintain consistency batch to batch. 

Third, we became a Certified B Corp in 2020. Certified B Corps are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. This certification holds us accountable to make the best decisions for our employees, the coffee farmers, and the communities we work in. 

Aldea Coffee is a people-and-planet-before-profit, B Corp. By partnering directly with farmers, roasting specialty coffee, and serving you, we strive to bring the highest level of social and environmental engagement to all the communities in which we work.
