El Salvador La Esperanza estate, bourbon

£6.00 - £24.00

Grade: SHG (strictly high grown). That is to say, grown higher than 4500ft above sea level

This single estate coffee from El Salvador expresses its acidity with a wonderful jaffa taste (chocolate & orange) that combines with milk fat to make a wonderfully exotic cappuccino as a result of the cirtus orange notes that are easily identifiable in the cup

Finca La Esperanza has been producing coffee in El Salvador since the 1850. The plantation is part of a biological corridor stretching from Mexico to Panama, 25 hectares of which are growing this bourbon variety

We don't consider this coffee suitable for espresso, but if you follow the current fashion for very 'bright' espresso (a la Cup of Excellence coffees deployed as espresso) then feel free to disagree & order this coffee for your espresso needs

We like our espresso to be smooth & delicate on the whole, and this coffee certainly sits outside that criteria, with the bite of a freshly squeezed orange
