Know where your coffee comes from

El Salvador is a country that doesn’t work so much in cooperatives like a lot of other countries do. Here a producer is the owner of the land and does the processing him- or herself. Carlos Mendes is a lawyer with a family history in coffee. And because of his passion for coffee, he started regrowing the coffee plants and researching about methods to grow the best quality coffee. He is still a lawyer, but is extremely passionate about his coffee. When we started working with him, he only processed natural coffees, which was an exception for El Salvador, now he also processes honey sometimes, but still mostly natural.
