Find Your Best Grind

For the best flavour, we recommend whole beans and grinding just before brewing. This gives you more control and keeps your coffee tasting its best.

If you’d like it pre-ground, we’ve matched each grind to your brewing method:

Coarse: Best for French press, percolator and cold brew.

Medium-Coarse: Great for Chemex, Clever Dripper, and longer AeroPress brews.

Medium: Perfect for drip coffee makers and flat bottom pour overs.

Medium-Fine: Ideal for pour over (V60) and AeroPress with shorter brew times.

Fine: Best for espresso and moka pots.

Behind The Beans

El Salvador - DARK ROAST

This El Salvador Dark comes from Finca La Argentina, our family farm in the Apaneca-Illamatepec mountain range. The farm sits in one of El Salvador’s most important coffee-growing areas, where volcanic soil, elevation, and careful agricultural practices help create coffees with structure and depth.

Grown between 1,200 and 1,300 metres above sea level, this lot is made with Bourbon and Catimor hybrid varieties. The coffee is naturally processed and patio-dried in full sun at Los Ausoles in Ahuachapán, a method that supports body, sweetness, and a subtle fruit character in the cup.

Roasted dark, this coffee was crafted to feel bold and comforting while still preserving a sense of place. It is a dark roast with familiarity, but not flatness: smooth, grounded, and shaped by the volcanic landscape of our family farm.

Why you'll love this coffee

This cup has the comfort dark roast drinkers enjoy, but with more balance than bitterness. The natural process gives it a little fruit depth beneath the roast, while the darker profile brings a smooth, rounded body that works beautifully black or with milk.

It is great if you want something bold, familiar style, and with a direct connection to our family farm in El Salvador. Brew it as espresso for depth, French press for body, or drip for a reliable everyday dark roast.
