About Honduras
Honduras is located in Central America, bordered by Guatemala, El Salvador, and Nicaragua, with coastlines along the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean. Spanish is the primary language. The economy is traditionally known for agricultural exports such as coffee and bananas, as well as textile manufacturing.
The spirits market
Alcohol sales are legal for buyers aged 18 and older, though municipalities enforce temporary dry laws during elections and holidays. Registered businesses import products subject to 15% to 20% base tariffs—or 0% under CAFTA-DR and EU agreements—plus specific excise taxes up to L 52.2817 per liter and a 15% sales tax. Local producers mainly make aguardiente, rum, and liqueurs. Rising urban demand for premium spirits like whiskies and gins provides clear opportunities for foreign brands.
