A single-origin coffee from Finca Gobiado in the Illamatepec mountain range, Ahuachapan department, El Salvador, grown at 1300 meters. Features a blend of Orange, Yellow, and Red Bourbon varieties. Processed using anaerobic fermentation in airtight barrels for 96 hours with selected microbes, followed by natural drying on raised beds.

This is a very light roast (146.0 roast color) suitable for both espresso and filter brewing.
Nick and Charlie started S&W Craft Roasting as avid home roasters and built it into a focused, direct to consumer operation based in Coatesville, Indiana. The roastery is veteran owned and runs exclusively online with no brick and mortar retail, keeping the emphasis squarely on the coffee itself. All production goes through a refurbished 1993 Sasa Samiac drum roaster fitted with Agtron color control systems for precise, repeatable results. The catalog runs deep, with roughly 99 single origin varieties sourced from Ethiopia, India, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Colombia, China, and beyond. Their roasting philosophy prioritizes origin character over roast imprint, with no artificial flavorings, preservatives, or additives.
