In honor of and homage to our sharpening crew who crush it on the daily, we're proud to wave this coffee flag in honor of their good work sharpening the Bay Area and beyond, featuring the artwork of sharpener Yvan Kawecki.
About the coffee:
Four Barrel sources this coffee from Dipilto, a tiny town just a few miles from the border with El Salvador in Nicaragua's Nueva Segovia coffee region.
For many years, the roaster we work with, Four Barrel, has been working with their exporting partners and producers in Nueva Segovia to slow their coffee drying process and to dry their coffees on raised beds rather than on the traditional hot, black tarps on the ground.
Slowly, they've seen a remarkable cup profile emerge from Dipilto: sweet, clean, and dynamic. Politically, things in Nicaragua have been challenging to say the least. Many farmers have walked away from their established coffee farms, and this year, there was a great deal of uncertainty about how we could support our farmers in Nicaragua. Once again, we are blessed to have Alejandro Valiente on the ground in El Salvador.
He worked closely with Hipolito Morales, Guillermo Montenegro, and Misael Olivera as they banded together and delivered their catuai, villalobos, and caturra varieties to the skilled hands of Manuel Rosales and his el Puma (dry mill).
The beans dried slowly and processed carefully, and the result is lovely: butterscotch, cherry, and a heavy, long body. We are thrilled to taste the combined efforts of these Dipilto farmers and look forward to supporting their projects in the harvests to come. Available in the shop and online.
