OLD SCHOOL K-CUPS | TIRAMISU, CHOCOLATE CAKE, PRALINES | Honey Process | EL SALVADOR

K-CUPS:  Specialty grade quality meets k-cup convenience.  Traditional k-cups use both stale and under-dosed coffee resulting in a weak cup that is little more than brown water. Our K-Cups are fully dosed, roasted to order and 100% recyclable.  Just pinch the lid open, empty the used grinds, rinse and recycle. 

ABOUT THE COFFEE:  Another Baby Sweet daily driver.  Is it strange that we think it tastes like Tiramisu, the famous coffee flavoured dessert ?  Maybe, but you'll get the idea soon enough.  Sweet, vanilla wafery goodness with just a hint of praline.

Cerro Las Ranas (the Hill of Frogs) coffee is named after the farm’s lagoon that is populated by thousands of frogs, located in Apaneca within the department of Ahuachapan, El Salvador.  The coffee is produced by JASAL, a family owned operation where Jose Antonio Salaverria and his sons take great pride in their meticulous attention to detail, from year-round farm management to quality control in the cupping lab, and everything in between.  In the pulped natural process (also called a honey process), JASAL pulps perfectly ripened cherries and then dries the coffee beans, still covered in mucilage, on clay patios while constantly turning the beans to ensure even drying.
