El Salvador Delagua Pacamara

About This Coffee

Apaneca is located in western El Salvador, near the Honduran border. The area's unique microclimate promotes sugar concentration in the cherries. The ripest cherries are hand-picked and floated to sort the highest-quality cherries. They're then fermented anaerobically for 4 to 12 days at 18 to 21°C, allowing for a wide modulation of the process and achieving a high level of flavor development. The cherries are dried for 20 to 25 days to 10-11% moisture. Look for intense fruit and elegant floral notes, leading to flavors of red grape, concord jelly, and Fig Newton, and a dark chocolate finish.
