Coffee Details Origin: El Salvador Region: Apaneca-Ilamatepec Farm: Finca Lima Picaflor Producer: Los Volcanos Variety: Red Bourbon Processing: Fully Washed Altitude: 1,350m Roast Level: Medium Tasting Notes: Red apple, sugarcane, maple syrup About This Coffee Finca Lima Picaflor takes its name from the picaflor — the tiny hummingbirds that hover among the farm's high coffee trees. It sits in the Apaneca-Ilamatepec range, one of El Salvador's most respected growing regions, where rich volcanic soil and cool, high-elevation air slow the cherries as they ripen. That slow maturation is what you taste in the cup: bright, ripe apple fruit, a cane-sugar sparkle and a rounded maple-syrup sweetness. The coffee is fully washed for clarity, then roasted medium in Kuala Lumpur to keep Red Bourbon's classic sweetness and clean character front and centre. How to Brew Finca Lima Picaflor Method: Ratio | Recipe | Time Espresso: 1:2 | 18g in, 36g out | 25–33 seconds Filter / Pour-over: 1:17 | 16g coffee, 250ml water at 93°C | 3 minutes Running bitter or hollow? Grind a touch coarser to slow the flow; grind finer if the cup tastes thin or sour. How Much Coffee Is in a Bag? A 300g bag makes around 20 filter cups (about 15g each) or roughly 17 espressos at 18g — a couple of weeks of bright morning brewing. Prefer to settle in? The 1kg bag stretches to about 65 filter cups, so you can live with this high-grown single origin and watch how it opens up across the bag. Frequently Asked Questions Is Finca Lima Picaflor better as espresso or filter? Both work well. As filter or pour-over it shows the brightest red apple and sugarcane clarity; as espresso it pulls sweeter and rounder, with the maple-syrup body coming forward. Start with the recipes above. What does this coffee taste like? Red apple, sugarcane and maple syrup, with a juicy mouthfeel, gentle acidity and a clean, sweet finish. It's a bright, easy-drinking Central American cup rather than a heavy, roasty one. How fresh is it? We roast to order in Kuala Lumpur. 300g packs ship within 24 hours, and the coffee is at its best 1–2 weeks after the roast date printed on your bag. Which grind should I choose? Pick the grind that matches your brewer at checkout — whole bean, French press, drip, Aeropress, mokapot or espresso. Whole bean ground fresh just before brewing always tastes best.
