Weekly Roast El Salvador Coffee

When Ken, of Weekly Roast Coffee asked if I would like to try their coffee I said “Yes”. I am nothing if not enthusiastic about the bean. The funnything is that I have been reviewing so much coffee lately that I haven’t reviewed tea…even though I have been drinking it. Anyway, Ken sent me a package of their El Salvador.

The beans smell peppery. The flavor of the beans before brewing is mild with a crisp teture. These are the beans to use for chocolate covered coffee beans, coffee bean brittle, or anything that you are going to want coffee beans as a textural ingredient.
The flavor is bright without out being too acidic. Very smooth. This is a great morning coffee. Cream and sugar bring out butterscotch and vanilla flavors, but black the coffee is mild and slightly nutty.
If this coffee was a vacation it would be a small lake cabin: Relaxing, satisfying, and fresh.
I have a special place in my heart for indy companies, start ups, and artisans. I think that the corporate boom in midcentury 1900 lowered the quality of living for everyone as items became affordable but lacking in quality. Walmart is a great example. You can save money but you end up with pure- D- crap. Outsourcing to other countries irritates me. So, when I have the opportunity to support local companies, small companies, American companies I do so.
I look forward to trying more of Weekly Roast’s coffees.
