This is a sweet Bourbon coffee with a rich mouthfeel and relatively low acidity. Flavour notes of chocolate and roasted nuts with hints of dried fruit in the finish. Gilberto Baraona named his bourbon trees «Bourbon Elite» as these trees are very old and are considered to be among the original Bourbon trees that were planted in El Salvador many years ago. His son Diego, who is now in charge of the farm,loves these Bourbon coffees as much as I do and says he will focus on producing more of it along with his Pacamara, Sudan Rume and a few other cultivars he has identified to produce unique coffees on his farm. Diego Baraona is a 5th generation coffee farmer and took over his family farm in 2020 after his father, our dear friend and legendary coffee producer Gilberto Baraona passed away. Aged 25, Diego was living in Barcelona studying and building his own life when he lost his father. The sudden and unexpected death of Gilberto forced Diego to make a life choice. Either sell the coffee farm that had been in his family for 130 years, or move back to El Salvador and become a coffee farmer. Fortunately Diego decided to continue working on his father’s and family legacy and now, three years later he is not only producing high quality coffees like his father but taking it to a new level.
