Apaneca is a single origin coffee from the Cordillera Apaneca mountain range in Western El Salvador. Grown in the fertile foothills at elevation, this coffee is made from the Bourbon varietal and processed using the washed method. It offers a wonderfully smooth cup with a balance of milk chocolate, stone fruits and nuts, featuring a nut chocolate flavour with a plum finish. This coffee won a 1 Star Great Taste Award in 2023.
Rounton Coffee Roasters operates from a converted granary in East Rounton, North Yorkshire, roasting Monday through Friday on a Loring S35 Kestrel and S15 Falcon. The team started out at farmers' markets with hand scribbled roast profiles and built into a multi award winning roastery. Their approach is characteristically Yorkshire: straightforward and focused on making "dead good coffee." They recommend brewing at least ten days after roast to let the flavours open up, a benefit of the convection roasting process which helps coffee stay fresh longer. Packaging is carbon neutral and home recyclable. Their Sparkling Water Decaf uses a process that preserves more natural taste than conventional decaffeination.
