El Salvador Finca Majahual Orange Bourbon 48h – Espresso

About This Coffee

This single-origin coffee from Finca Majahual in El Salvador's Los Naranjos Valley features the Orange Bourbon variety processed with a 48-hour anaerobic fermentation in sealed, oxygen-free barrels. Hand-selected cherries undergo precise fermentation to enhance fruit character while maintaining varietal clarity. After fermentation, the beans are dried on raised beds under shade for approximately 26 days before greenhouse stabilization. The volcanic soil and cool air currents of the region contribute to the coffee's distinctive profile of red grape, dates, and tangerine notes with soft, expressive, layered characteristics.
