el salvador santa ana is a washed bourbon from the santa ana region of el salvador, roasted by coffee factory ltd. the washed process keeps the cup clean and transparent, letting the bourbon varietal speak clearly. expect a citrus-forward profile, lemon and grapefruit up front with citrus zest brightness, softening into stone fruit mid-palate and finishing with milk and dark chocolate. that combination of acidity and chocolate weight makes it versatile across brew methods. use a medium-fine grind for pour over to highlight the citrus clarity, or pull it as an espresso if you want the chocolate notes to come forward.

about coffee factory ltd
coffee factory ltd roasts seriously. that's the thing about an operation based out at seaton junction, axminster, that kind of industrial-edge address tends to filter out the casual. you don't end up at unit 3 samurai buildings by accident, which means the people who do end up there are usually there for a reason, and the roasting reflects that kind of intentionality. this isn't a place trying to soften its edges for a broader audience. the regulars who've made it a consistent part of their week aren't doing so out of habit alone. if you're anywhere near the east devon stretch, the detour toward seaton junction for a bag of freshly roasted beans is the most defensible decision you'll make all morning.
