This coffee is the last in our selections from El Salvador this season and the last from Jasal and Las Cruces. We are delighted to be working with the Salaverria family who are now in their 6th generation of coffee farming. Jose works with his sons Andres and Jose the younger and now trade under the name of Jasal group.
El Martillo is a medium sized farm owned by the Salaverria family and is 19,5 hectares and sits at about 1700 masl, which is a high altitude for El Salvador. The cultivars grown are a mix of Bourbon and Hibrido de San Francisco (a local hybrid of the dwarf bourbon Pacas and old Bourbon Elite).
Of the three coffees we have bought from Jasal and Las Cruces this year this is by far the most classic. This honey processed coffee is just bursting with sweetness and was the main factor in us purchasing it. Expect tonnes of chocolate and fudge.
