21 May Santa Josefita 2013

The first roast of this year’s harvest is Santa Josefita: the first direct trade relationship coffee imported by Bridgeport Coffee. Purchasing direct from growers is part of our company’s mission — and our friendship with Santa Josefita’s famers, the Lima brothers, is becoming stronger.

This roast is the classic Bourbon cultivar (classic sweet, medium body), now available in the shop and online.

About the growing region: The Apaneca-ILamatepec Mountains are located in the Northwest of El Salvador. The town of Ataco is a peaceful little tourist destination that is perpetually clean and freshly painted. It is a quaint little mountain village that the urban dwellers from Santa Ana and San Salvador come to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
