This single-origin coffee is grown at Finca Lima Picaflor in the Los Volcanes region of El Salvador. Situated on the volcanic slopes near the Santa Ana Volcano at an altitude of 1,000 to 1,900 meters, the coffee is cultivated in rich volcanic soil under native shade trees. This Red Bourbon variety is processed using the washed method, which involves depulping, fermentation, and sun-drying on patios. The resulting cup offers a medium roast profile with distinct tasting notes of pear, dulce de leche, and macadamia.
Ghostbird Coffee was founded by Thomas Ooi in Kuala Lumpur in 2015 with a mission to advance specialty coffee culture in Malaysia. Ooi built the roastery around a Giesen W6A drum roaster, roasting fresh daily and resting all beans for three days before dispatch to ensure peak flavor. The company serves as both a roaster and an educational hub, offering public cuppings and coffee appreciation classes that have earned it a reputation as a school of specialty coffee. Ghostbird is a founding partner of the Good Coffee Festival and has hosted the Malaysia AeroPress Championship since 2023. Single origin offerings and espresso blends are developed with an emphasis on responsible sourcing and transparency.
