Montecarlos, El Salvador

Montecarlos is a spectacular farm, covering the entire circumference of a dormant volcano, nestled in a chain of volcanic cones. On one side is the Pacific ocean and on the other the central plateau bringing warm winds up the northern slopes. This is a pure coffee with a light orange accent. Montecarlos Estate is owned and run by Carlos Batres and his wife, Julie. The couple were both educated in the US and have lived in metropolitan areas like D.C. and New York, as well as London, where Batres represented El Salvador at the International Coffee Organization before moving back to El Salvador.
