The Coffee... Coffee plant varieties, much like wine, define the flavor.  And, just like wine, there are rare coffee varieties unique to a particular place.  The Pacamara variety is identified with El Salvador and the best Pacamaras are still produced there.  This coffee is part of Aida Batlle’s “Los Luchadores” project, finding and selecting great El Salvadoran coffees.
 
Las Delicias is owned and run by Ricardo Gonzalez and his family.  In the cup, the brute savory strength unique to Pacamara is tempered by a sweet fruitiness, and leads to characteristics of flowers, plum, dried fruit, and a mouthwatering savoriness.
