From the producer

Rafael and Carmen da Silva Hoff and their family manage La Fany, a long-held family estate near Ahuachapán in the Apaneca-Ilamatepec range.

From the roaster

Drop Coffee describes dried-mango aroma, milk chocolate, ripe yellow tropical fruit and a resin-like finish, with vibrant acidity and a creamy body.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

Pacamara—El Salvador’s Pacas × Maragogipe cross—is paired here with a 1,600-meter lot and a straightforward washed process. Drop also discloses a green-coffee FOB price of US$5.50 per pound; that supply-chain figure is kept separate from the 230 SEK retail listing.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Washed process

Drop identifies this Pacamara as washed. The exact release does not disclose its fermentation vessel or duration, washing protocol, drying surface or drying time.

What was added?

Nothing is documented as added during processing.

What wasn't added?

No fruit, flavoring or other adjunct is disclosed.

Why it matters

A washed process generally foregrounds clarity, acidity and variety character by removing fruit before drying.

What you might taste

Drop’s published direction is dried mango, milk chocolate and ripe yellow tropical fruit, with a resin-like finish, vibrant acidity and creamy body.
