EL SALVADOR APANECA FINCA MIRAVALLE

Miravalle is about 1500 meters above sea level, and is only planted in Pacamara. It’s part of a much larger group of coffee plots, a few of them demarcated by cultivar separations, and the larger plots a mix of cultivars.

Miravalle is only a few hectares in size, and is perched on the verdant slopes of the Apaneca-Ilamatepec mountain region. This lot is the result of a new coffee project in the region by one of the local mills, their goal being to identify the top qualities from farmers they already buy coffee from. These coffees are then kept separate throughout the milling process, sold as an individual microlots as opposed to being lost to large blends.
