el salvador coffee
by dear deer coffee roasting bar onehunga · auckland, new zealand
you'll taste stone fruit before peach. this is el salvador monte sion estate shg, a washed el salvador from dear deer coffee roasting bar onehunga.
expect stone fruit and peach on the brighter side, backed by milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and cocoa for a rounded, grounded finish. the washed process keeps the flavours clean and distinct rather than heavy or syrupy.
it is a bourbon varietal grown in el salvador at strictly high grown (shg) altitude, which produces denser, slower-maturing beans. the coffee is washed processed, meaning the fruit is removed before drying, resulting in a cleaner, more straightforward cup.
filter brewing methods such as v60, chemex, or batch filter suit this coffee well, as they highlight the stone fruit and peach notes alongside the chocolate range. a medium grind and water around 93 degrees celsius works well for washed bourbon coffees like this one.
