el salvador coffee
by quantum coffee roasters · cardiff, uk
you'll taste baking spice before spice. this is el salvador - finca plan del hoyo, a washed el salvador from quantum coffee roasters.
this coffee leads with baking spice and herbal characteristics, with an overall spiced quality that makes it more aromatic and savory than sweet. it's a restrained, structured cup rather than a fruity or candy-forward one.
it's grown at finca plan del hoyo in el salvador using pacamara and bourbon varietals, then processed using the washed method, which removes fruit pulp before drying and produces a clean, defined cup.
brew methods that emphasize clarity, such as pour-over or aeropress, will best showcase the baking spice and herbal notes. keeping water temperature around 93-96°c and a medium grind will help avoid muddying the more delicate herbal character.
