El Salvador

Single Origin Speciality Coffee

Cafe Monte Sion has been a family owned coffee farm since 1907 and is committed to producing highest quality, shade grown coffee. Located in the "Cordillera de Apaneca" mountain range between 1,250-1,400masl, farmers use sustainable agriculture methods to protect and provide refuge for many species of migratory birds that pass through the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor. 

A research study done by Rainforest Alliance between the years 2008 and 2010 in Monte Sion Estate farm confirmed that 37% of the birds in the farm were migrant birds that would not be able to reach their destination if there was no forest in that area.

In the shade, coffee cherries grow slightly slower, perfectly ripening, which enhances their natural sweetness. In the cup, the coffee has rich and sweet notes of ripe stone fruit and subtle almonds. With complex acidity at the front of the cup and a persistent sweet finish, which is enhanced after cooling.

El Salvador Monte Sion Estate is fabulously rich and sweet espresso. Excellent as a filter brew which can be enjoyed at any time of day.
