Stonecutter Series: El Salvador Naranjito Pacas Honey Process - 13 LBS REMAIN!

Our Stonecutter Coffee is a rotating highlight coffee series - a tribute to the rich history of Deer Isle's granite quarrying industry that peaked in the early 1900s. These beans are selected for their "je ne sais quoi" and often come to us from unique coffee producing regions of the world and embrace inventive processing methods. Limited amounts available, changing frequently, and now packaged in our one of a kind Stonecutter 10 oz. coffee tubes!

These tubes are a new package adventure for us. Designed and hand drawn by Deer Isle local Farrell Ruppert, they feature the slabs of granite quarried out of Stonington. Made of 100% FSC certified paper, soy ink, with gold foiled accents and a sticker of the current origin inside. For every tube made, a portion of profits are donated to One Tree Planted.

We are working with Balzac Brothers again to import this coffee. Balzac Brothers is a specialty green bean exporter for over 95 years and we just love working with them. Angela always helps us find unique and delicious coffees.

We bring you this Pacas varietal Honey Processed coffee from El Salvador from the Finca El Naranjito ie "Little Orange Farm". Mapache Coffee is a 5th generation coffee producing company in the Apaneca Ilamatepec mountain range working with Finca El Naranjito. Their coffee is grown at 1,400 meters above sea level (masl), near the El Imposible National Park which is a one-of-a-kind environment for growing coffee. Fog surrounds the farm from early morning, so the beans grow under very humid conditions. This honey processed coffee, meaning the mucilage is left on during the drying phase, is giving us notes of juicy kumquat and cocoa butter. The incredibly buttery body on this coffee makes it drink darker than we roasted it, which is a light/medium roast.
