this is a natural-processed pacamara from el salvador, produced by armando guardado. pacamara is a large-bean hybrid varietal known for its pronounced, complex cup. natural processing, where the coffee dries inside the whole fruit, tends to push fruity and fermented sweetness to the foreground while adding body. without specific tasting notes provided, expect the combination of pacamara's genetic character and natural processing to deliver a full, fruit-forward cup. it suits filter brewing, which lets the varietal's complexity come through cleanly, though it will also hold up well as an espresso if you prefer a denser, sweeter extraction.
