The coffee produced in El Salvador has attracted worldwide attention in recent years, which is the result of close cooperation between small coffee farmers and international coffee organizations (groups) that help improve farming and handling methods. The main hope is to improve home and community life after increasing farmers' income, so that coffee farmers have incentives to change their planting methods to restore nature's original natural ecology, and the quality of coffee will improve step by step. Make consumers willing to accept coffee produced in El Salvador to combine consumption patterns with natural ecology, which is the most perfect agricultural production and marketing behavior.

This is a hard bean (S.H.G) from the primeval forest at high altitude.

Most of the coffee from El Salvador is a traditional bourbon tree species, which is derived from yellow bourbon, orange, bourbon, cherry, bourbon, and so on. In the coffee market where every coffee farm must have a unique character, Salvadoran coffee has always been loved by people for its thick fragrance, sweet brown sugar honey and stable and gentle taste.

Monterey Manor in El Salvador is located near El Salvador's EL Imposible National Park, with coffee growing on more than 1100 meters of fertile volcanic soil, with the perfect coffee growing environment [it rains in the morning and there is a big difference in temperature in the afternoon], plus Monterey Manor was certified by the Rainforest Alliance (R.A) and the United States Department of Agriculture (U.S.D.A) in 2006. (photo by Blog) Coffee beans must be grown naturally, with slower growth rates, smaller grains and higher density, all of which make Monterey Manor a coffee estate known for its sweetness and perfection.

The raw beans of El Salvador's traditional bourbon coffee are yellowish brown.

Monterey Manor is 100% of the traditional bourbon tree species treated with water treatment, with an annual output of 600 bags (3000 kg). The proportion of defective beans carefully selected by hand is about 5%, the weight loss ratio of roasted to light roasted (city) coffee beans is 14%, and the proportion of empty shell beans to bad beans is 4%. Light baking can retain a little more moisture and acidity to enhance the berry aroma and get the sweetness of the most mellow chocolate hazelnut during re-baking.

The second water injection is the same as before, draw a circle clockwise with the center of the filter cup, and the water flow should not rush to the place where the coffee powder is connected with the filter paper, so as not to produce channel effect.
