The high-altitude Chalatenango district of Alotepec-Metapán in El Salvador is known for producing some of the country's most exceptional, often award-winning coffees. We first met Jaime Guevara nine years ago because his farm, Finca Don Jaime, had won a prestigious local quality award. Since then, Jaime's main cultivar pacas has consistently delivered a delicious and approachable cup, beautifully representing the classic profile of El Salvadorean coffee.
The farm is focused very much on quality and Jamie has continued to win awards for his coffee since we started working together. Embracing innovation, Jaime was one of the first adopters in the region of raised drying beds to meticulously control the drying process after fermentation. This move away from the traditional El Salvadorean concrete patio method has proven to be a quality game-changer. Building on this progress, we collaborated with Jaime to further refine his process by funding the construction of a shading system for these beds. This additional improvement ensures that the coffee is cured at lower temperatures, preserving its natural sweetness and further elevating its overall quality.
Always forward-thinking, Jaime has also cultivated Gesha on a small plot of his farm. Gesha’s inherent sweetness, combined with post-harvest in-cherry fermentation and extended drying over a month, produces a vibrant, fruit-forward cup that highlights Jaimes ability in producing excellent, accessible and delicious specialty coffee.
This coffee showcases ripe strawberry, juicy mandarin orange, and vibrant tropical fruit notes. A rich cacao nib depth and weight blends with cherry sweetness and hints of roasted hazelnut praline. A syrupy cane sugar sweetness is supported by a silky-smooth mouthfeel, embodying the exceptional character of Jaime's work.
