## What the Brand Says

> El Martillo is one of Jose Antonio Salaverria’s highest farms, situated at 1700masl in the rolling hills surrounding the Santa Ana Volcano. For this particular lot, the cherries are de-pulped, removing the surrounding fruit flesh from the beans. The beans are then soaked for 10 hours to allow a mild fermentation that helps remove any excess fruit, helping to make a cleaner, more transparent cup. The beans are then dried under shade on clay patios, the shade helps to maintain a more even temperature and a slower drying period. This gives more elegance and clarity, offering a clean, balanced and easy drinking experience, perfect for all brewing methods.
