Las Tablas, El Salvador

las tablas is a washed bourbon from the apaneca region of el salvador, roasted by ware coffee lab. the washed process scrubs the cherry away before drying, which keeps the cup clean and lets the bourbon variety speak clearly. expect stone fruit up front, with a cocoa undercurrent that adds quiet depth. because the flavors are relatively delicate and well-defined, this coffee rewards brew methods that give you control over extraction, such as pour-over or aeropress. use water around 93-95°c, a medium-fine grind, and a slow, steady pour to keep the stone fruit bright without muddying the finish.
