About this coffee
FINCA LAS MERCEDES is a gorgeous honey processed coffee from El Salvador.
For six generations, the Aguilar family has produced coffee on the shade-rich land on the north-eastern slope of the San Salvador Volcano, with a direct view over the capital city of San Salvador. The estates cover nearly 160 hectares at altitudes ranging from 1,250 to 1,700 meters, the top of the farm being unusually high for El Salvador and lending to great coffee growing potential.
This honey processed microlot is a single varietal separation from a plot of 'Kenia', thought to be a Salvadorian mutation of traditional SL Bourbon varieties developed by Scott Laboratories in Kenya.
Taste notes: Red apple, hazelnut, stewed fruits.
