El Salvador Santa Josefita Natural

The 2021/22 harvest is here. Our 15th. This family owned farm is located in the Northern section of the Apaneca-Ilamatepec volcanic mountain range near the beautiful little town of Ataco. The Lima Brothers farm with precision. They mill his specialty coffees at their low water use micro-mill located at the base of the Santa Ana Volcano. The mill looks like his farms; clean, organized, precise, and thoughtful are descriptions that come to mind when I observe their operation. What makes this coffee different is it is allowed to dry with the coffee fruit intact which creates a fuller bodied but fruity cup. Many coffees processed in this manner overwhelm the pallet with ripe fruit. But the natural from Josefita is a more subtle and balanced.
