GREAT BERRY FLAVORS AND A FLORAL, HONEYSUCKLE-LIKE SWEETNESS
Noruega is a farm that has been in Rafael Silva Hoff’s family for four generations. All coffee is handpicked and processed at their own mill, 'Beneficio San Pedro'. Owning their own mill allows the Silva's to manage the quality control much more than most farmers in El Salvador. Some of the fruit on the outside of the coffee bean is removed at the mill, and then the beans are dried on raised beds in a green house, where workers turn them regularly to ensure they dry evenly and do not ferment.
Our team missed having a Salvadorian in our lineup in 2020 (especially Amy!), and we were excited to cup samples of this red bourbon natural when they arrived. A very clean tasting natural, Noruega highlights great berry flavors and a floral, honeysuckle-like sweetness without being overpowering. AKA - this isn't a total "fruit bomb", but will surely delight fans of naturals through and through!
