Irene del Socorro Sosa owns Finca Talquesalar, a farm in the La Montañita region of Chalatenango that is home to around 4,500 coffee trees consisting of Gesha and Pacamara varieties as well as different citrus trees that contribute to the ecosystem of the land.
Coffees from the farm, such as this lot, are often Honey processed and dried on African beds for 18 to 27 days.
Microlots from El Salvador are sourced from different groups of smallholder producers and some established estates located throughout the country. The farms here are small on average (5–15 manzanas, or roughly 3.5–10.5 hectares) and many producers grow classic Salvadoran varieties such as Pacas and Pacamara as well as Bourbon.
