This coffee is from Farm Santa Cristina in San Salvador, El Salvador, grown at altitudes between 900-1200 meters by Rene and Ana Cristina Hernandez. It is a Bourbon variety processed using the natural method, where ripe cherries are hand-picked, sorted, and dried in the cherry on African beds in the sun without depulping. The cup profile features intense sweet berry notes with aromas of walnut, cane sugar, and milk chocolate.
Felix Teiretzbacher founded kaffeelix in 2012, initially to supply his own café before specializing completely in roasting. His approach is to roast coffees relatively light, a method that highlights the unique characteristics of a bean's origin and processing rather than masking them with roasted notes. This dedication has paid off, with Felix winning the World Coffee Roasting Championship in 2022.
