los andes is a washed bourbon from the santa ana region of el salvador, roasted by drop coffee roasters. it earned recognition as a cup of excellence lot, placing it among the top-scoring coffees from its harvest. the washed process keeps the cup clean and defined, letting the bourbon varietal read clearly as bright lemon acidity, hibiscus florals, and a smooth caramel finish. it suits brewing methods that highlight clarity and delicate structure, such as pour-over or aeropress. use a medium-fine grind, water around 93°c, and a gentle, even pour to keep the floral and citrus notes intact without over-extracting the sweetness.
