We just found the best El Salvador we've ever tasted. Finca Suiza. This coffee is grown by Francisco Menéndez in the Santa Ana region. It consists of an interesting blend of varietals: 60% Bourbon, 30% Pacamara, 10% Catimor.
The Pacamara contributes to a particularly interesting fruity flavor profile. It's not funky-fruity like a Harrar or natural Sidamo, but dignified and clean. Cupping and french press show lots of berry and stone fruits, and drip brewing shows more apple and cinnamon than anything else. The body is thick contributing to a long sweet finish.
We'll fill you in more once we take delivery and are able fully asses the coffee, but from what we can tell so far, its going to be a pretty tasty addition to our "starting lineup."
