TIM WENDELBOE - Los Pirineos Bourbon Espresso | El Salvador - Washed - Bourbon Elite

Tim Wendelboe Coffee Roasters is located in Oslo, Norway

From Tim Wendelboe

This is a sweet Bourbon coffee with a rich mouthfeel and relatively low acidity. Flavour notes of chocolate and roasted nuts with hints of dried fruit in the finish.

This Bourbon coffee is a great representation of the Bourbon coffees grown at Los Pirineos. It has a lot of the chocolaty notes you often find in the Bourbon coffees in Brazil, but with more intensity and concentration of flavour. The coffee has distinct flavours of chocolate, roasted nuts and dried fruits. 

Gilberto Baraona named his bourbon trees «Bourbon Elite» as these trees are very old and are considered to be among the original Bourbon trees that were planted in El Salvador many years ago. His son Diego, who is now in charge of the farm,loves these Bourbon coffees as much as I do and says he will focus on producing more of it along with his Pacamara, Sudan Rume and a few other cultivars he has identified to produce unique coffees on his farm.
