TASTING NOTES
Fragrance of blueberry, raspberry and lime blossom with an aroma of cocoa and dried dates. Notes of cola, cherry and orange with an aftertaste of prune, green apple and a sweetness of dark fruits. Bright malic and citric acidity with a soft, creamy texture and medium body.
on the slopes of the Santa Ana Volcano. The farm looks out over Santa Ana city on one side and Lake Coatepeque on the other. Its climate is warmer and drier than many surrounding regions, with significant temperature shifts throughout the day. Combined with mineral-rich volcanic soils, these conditions contribute to a cup profile with exceptional clarity and character.
which results in a delicious and familiar cup profile. Freshly picked fruit is sorted and laid out to dry on raised beds at the farm.
Rafa placed 2nd in the Natural category in the 2024 Cup of Excellence competition with his naturally processed SL-28 from El Ángel! Just two years after acquiring the land.
We have been buying Rafa's coffee since 2024 and we are really excited for the future of El Ángel.
