About Jose Blas Ventura of Honduras
This is an exclusive Five & Hoek coffee we are always excited to share. We have worked with Blas since 2016 from Santa Elena, Honduras, the home of Catracha Coffee. Catracha exists to empower coffee producers and their families in Santa Elena. Mayra Powell runs this amazing organization and introduced us to Blas when we visited in January 2018.

Five & Hoek
Five & Hoek, roasting since 2011, is focused on living life in community and connecting with others (or themselves with a good book) through coffees that tell stories. Their own story starts in India, where owners Tyler and Erich fell in love with the laid back culture experienced in tea gardens (and rickshaw rides), and brought back a desire to share that experience through the avenue of coffee and community.
Five & Hoek opened their Wheaton cafe in 2014, and are expanding to put both cafe and roastery under the same roof in 2019, where they will continue to source and roast both approachable and experimental coffees. They serve delicious coffee and inspire community through local customers and producers partners as they live out their tagline, “Coffee / Connection / Community.
