This natural bourbon coffee comes from Finca Atzumpa, a farm in the Apaneca-Ilamatepec mountain range in El Salvador. Andrés Acosta is a sixth generation coffee producer operating the Santa Matilde Estate that contains Finca Atzumpa. The farm has been in the Ariz-Herrera family since 1875, making them one of the first in the region.

The Ariz-Herrera family have built a legacy and reputation for quality coffees, but Andrés is determined to take it to the next level.

“My perspective has changed from wanting to produce more coffee, to start focusing on producing quality coffee with new varieties and processes that can help us achieve my goal: offering high quality premium coffees to my partners.”

“I feel a greater responsibility to keep evolving and improving the quality of our coffees because now you see your farm’s name, legacy, and reputation on the line.”

Together with four other families, the Ariz-Herrera family created FUNDATACO, a foundation that provides opportunities for the children in the region to pursue athletic opportunities and scholarships. Through this Andrés continues the family’s legacy of not only cultivating quality coffee, but doing so while bringing sustainability, social responsibility and employment to their community. 

Roasted for espresso, every sip of this cup is bursting with fruity flavours. We chose to give this a medium-light roast to bring out as much sweetness as possible. This helps balance the acidity that brings the fruity notes to life. You can expect notes of plum, a rhubarb-like acidity, and a nice sugarcane sweetness, perfect for espresso or as a base for your favourite milky coffee.
