The Salaverria family has a long tradition of producing naturals that are of much higher quality than many others from Central America. They have good weather conditions for naturals: a dry climate, and mild temperatures. The family dry most of their naturals on raised beds at high altitudes. They believe slower drying on African beds decreases the flavour of ferment and pulp, and contributes to a cleaner and more complex profile. The aim with this coffee was to produce a natural processed coffee with lower pulp and ferment levels and a delicate balance. The Buena Vista coffee is well-balanced and has notes of red grape, chocolate and brown sugar.

The Producer
Buena Vista farm
The Buena Vista farm is part of a project with an El Salvadorian producer, Jose Antonio Salaverria and his two sons Andres and Jose Antonio, the younger. They are 6th generation coffee producers, their ancestors started growing coffee in Huachapan.
Typically, coffees from El Salvador were well balanced with good sweetness and balanced acidity. However coffee producers that grow interesting varietals have managed to create very complex and characterful coffees.
