Introducing Cuzcachapa: El Salvador's Hidden Coffee Gem

🌄 Nestled within the enchanting Volcan Chingo region of El Salvador lies a coffee treasure like no other – Cuzcachapa. Exclusive and enchanting, this specialty coffee hails from the illustrious Sitio de Maria, where coffee craftsmanship is a family tradition. Let's unravel the secrets of this exceptional brew!

🌱 The Birthplace: Meet Roque Abel Rios Canana, the proud owner of this coffee haven. Inherited from his coffee-loving parents in 2007, Sitio de Maria spans an impressive 41.3 hectares. Situated at elevations ranging from 1,250 to 1,600 meters above sea level, it enjoys the perfect climate for growing some of the world's finest beans.

☕ The Bean: Cuzcachapa's coffee cherries are a tantalizing Bourbon varietal, handpicked with meticulous care by laborers who only select the ripest, juiciest ones. Before they undergo their magical transformation, these cherries are visually sorted to ensure quality like no other.

🌊 The Transformation: The journey of Cuzcachapa coffee begins at a nearby wet mill where the cherries are pulped. A touch of alchemy happens as they ferment for up to 8 hours before being gently washed in pristine water. What emerges is coffee gold, ready for its next adventure.

☀️ The Sun-Kissed Finish: Parchment coffee is placed on raised beds, where the Salvadoran sun lends its gentle caress. Workers diligently rake parchment to ensure an even drying process, a labor of love that takes about 14 days.

🌊 Dive into the world of Cuzcachapa and experience the taste of El Salvador's coffee heritage. Each cup is a testament to tradition, quality, and the unwavering dedication of Roque Abel Rios Canana and his family. It's more than coffee; it's an exclusive adventure in every sip. ☕✨
