el pastoral is a natural-process coffee from jinotega, nicaragua, roasted by welwyn coffee lab. jinotega is one of nicaragua's main coffee-growing regions, and the natural process, where the coffee dries inside the whole fruit, tends to produce fuller body and fruit-forward sweetness. in the cup, el pastoral lands on milk chocolate and dark chocolate, making it an approachable but substantive option. it suits brew methods that let body come through, such as french press or espresso, though a slower pour-over will keep the chocolate notes clean and defined.

about welwyn coffee lab

welwyn coffee lab roasts its own. that alone separates it from most of what you'll find on stonehills. plenty of cafes buy in beans from a supplier, serve them passably, and call it a day. this place owns the earlier part of that process, which means the coffee in your cup has a shorter, more deliberate chain behind it. welwyn garden city isn't a city that gets written up in specialty coffee guides much, so finding a working roastery at this postcode is a genuine surprise. come on a weekday morning if you can. the pace is slower, the staff less stretched, and the difference between a roaster pulling shots with their own product and someone just running a cafe is easier to feel. start with a filter.
