La Independencia comes from an estate carrying the same name in the Santa Ana region of El Salvador. The area’s volcanic soil and cool climate ensure the slow and optimal ripening of the coffee berries. This La Independencia coffee is proof of the Salaverria family’s skill. They have worked years to achieve as high a quality as possible. This coffee consists of a few varieties from the estate, mainly Bourbon.
The aroma is floral and the taste is dominated by red berries. Additionally, one can find the acidity of grapefruit and plum-like sweetness.
