Dark Roast
A deeper roast shaped by time, fire, and the character of the mountains.
Rooted in the hills of El Arco, Ataco, El Salvador, this coffee leans into richness and depth. Cherries picked at peak ripeness are washed and roasted with intention to develop a fuller, more commanding presence. Cultivated at 5,000 feet by local farming families, it delivers a bold expression shaped by land, time, and fire.
