What Drop Coffee says about this coffee
Flavour profile: This Heirloom from La Fany has a white tea-like aroma. In the flavour, you find notes of milk chocolate, almond and hints of jasmine. The cup is balanced, and the mouthfeel is tea-like with a light to medium weight. The coffee has a finish of cacao nibs.
Colour: Light Pink Category: Curious Producer: Rafael and Carmen da Silva Hoff with family Farm: La Fany Varietal: Heirloom Process: Washed. Ripe cherries are selectively hand-picked and delivered to the family’s mill, Beneficio San Pedro. At intake, the cherries are sorted to ensure optimal quality. Selected cherries are then pulped and thoroughly washed to remove mucilage. Parchment is then evenly laid to dry on raised beds. During this stage, workers rake parchment frequently to ensure even drying. Location: Ahuachapán, Santa Ana Elevation: 1600 meters above sea level Roast: Light to medium to present the natural characteristics of the coffee. Price transparency: The FOB price paid for this coffee was 6 US$/Ib.
We are so excited to present La Fany Washed Heirloom for the first time. A small amount of Heirloom is harvested at the farm, alongside Bourbon, Caturra and Pacamara, among other varietals.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
How it sits among coffee from El Salvador
Drop Coffee describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, chocolate, nutty, floral. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from El Salvador; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
floral is unusual here — 9% of coffee from El Salvador are described that way.

“In 2018, we relocated our roastery to Rosersberg, just north of Stockholm, where we currently operate as a certified organic roaster.” their page (opens in a new tab)
These are claims the roaster makes about its business, not about this coffee, and we have not checked them against any register.

A further 2 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
