Additional Notes : El Salvador often gets overshadowed by its neighboring coffee powerhouses, but it truly deserves recognition for the exceptional coffee it produces. This particular offering is a perfect example—a reliable, everyday coffee that you'll love sipping all day. It's not a funk bomb or super juicy, but it delivers a quality cup with classic flavors, complemented by subtle dried fruit undertones and a satisfying sweetness on the finish.
El Molinito is a diminutive of the farm name, El Molino, and is the main lot.
Once picked, coffee is processed at the Beneficio Las Cruces in nearby Santa Ana before being bagged and shipped.
