Finca El Ángel is located high in the Santa Ana volcano; land which is very commonly known for its unique cup quality and characteristics. It was acquired by Rafael Silva early in march of 2023. El Ángel is located on a very prestigious coffee producing area of the country. It is literally on a volcano in Santa Ana. Part of the farm overlooks the Santa Ana city and part of the farm overlooks the Coatepeque Lake. The climate here is very different to that of other farm locations in the country. The climate here is hotter and drier with huge ups and downs in temperature throughout the day. This, along with the volcanic soils rich in minerals, helps provide the cup profile with its unique quality and characteristics.
Finca El Ángel was awarded with two Cup of Excellence awards in 2024. 7th Place in the experimental coffees category and 2nd Place in the naturals category. Both awards were received with the SL-28 varietal.
Rafael Gerardo Silva is a 6th generation coffee producer from El Salvador whose been directly involved in the coffee industry since 2016 when he joined the family business. Rafael currently manages not only his farm, but the family mill operation. His family history dates back to 1870, when his great-great-grandfather first acquired a farm in El Salvador.
The Red Bourbon varietal from El Salvador is one of the most sought-after varietals by buyers from around the world, so we are lucky to be able to share with you some of this amazing coffee. In the cup, you will find citric aromas with peach flavours, caramel sweetness, and walnut characteristics.
