ON TOP OF THE QUALITY PYRAMID


El Salvador is where coffee is best prepared / processed… because the job is well done…
I recommend with absolute tranquility Café de El Salvador.

Quote by Gigi Michelli from Illy Caffé S.p.A


The base of the coffee quality pyramid contains the two main existing species: Arabica and Robusta. The former is the one that popularized coffee consumption throughout the world and all fine coffees belong to this species.

The aroma and taste of the Traditional Arabica Coffees surpasses the hybrid species in the second echelon, and in the third echelon we see those traditional varieties that gradually ripen under shade.

The fourth echelon of the quality pyramid contains the traditional shade varieties that preserve their attributes by means of the humid process, receiving the name of Washed Coffee once this level is reached.

 
 

The fifth echelon is occupied by the washed Arabica variety that is sun-dried to avoid process automatization, resulting in a bean of excellent physical traits and a moisture level that homogenizes and preserves cup quality.

Finally, the apex of the pyramid contains the entirely hand processed coffee which receives total assurance recognition. Here we find an aromatic product highly esteemed and recommended by tasters.

It is here where you will find Café de El Salvador…
