Roast Level
Fresh 2025 harvest! This is our fourth year purchasing coffee from Monte Verde. The quality is exceptional again this harvest, and we always look forward to Monte Verde's arrival.
We (and you) loved this coffee so much last season, that we upped our volume commitment to the Contreras family for a third straight year. We roast this coffee on lighter side of the roast spectrum to preserve all of the delicious sweetness and acidity, but this coffee is not too delicate to be a daily drinker. If you are used to a more "medium" roast level, we think you will still really enjoy this coffee. A crowd-pleasing everyday drinker when prepared hot, but also one of our absolute favorite coffees when iced!
The Contreras family has been farming coffee on the volcanic slopes of Monte Verde for 5 generations, collecting almost 100 years of family coffee experience. The 36-hectare farm is only 93km from the capital city of San Salvador, outside the smaller city of Santa Ana. The mill employs 30 men year-round, then up to 150 men and women during the peak harvest season.

Delicious breakfast coffee
Excellent. Delicious coffee ! Enjoy my mornings with El Salvador!
Let’s hope no Tariffs block Coffee
This coffee is really smooth and nicely balanced. I usually prefer a darker roast but thought this sounded interesting and it held up the the description. Really good definitely recommend.
I am not sure if it the light roast but like the other 2 Speedwell coffee's we ordered, this one also has a sourness to it. Not much aroma either.
Great morning cup of coffee, very smooth! Perfect
