El Salvador - Los Luchadores
Process: Washed
Altitude: 1350m - 1650m
Roast: Medium
Characteristics: A naturally sweet coffee which boasts notes of chocolate, grapefruit, hibiscus and marmalade. JASAL are known for their processing flexibility and eye for detail producing many top lots, and Los Luchadores is the ‘Prize Fighter’. Extra commitment and effort has to be taken to make sure the picking and processing are consistently in line with expectations. This is reflective of the effort that prize winning luchadores put in and so the name was a natural choice. Even the sacks are hand painted.
Pacamara (an El Salvadorian cross between Pacas and Maragogype). Cherry is processed at the JASAL centralised processing mill, Beneficio Los Cruces. After wet processing, coffee is soaked, Kenyan style, for 10 hours in clean water before being soaked again in another batch of clean water. The result is subtle, but improves clarity, depth and body.
