Notes of peach, cantaloupe, allspice. Wilton, who is part mad scientist, part engineer, & part coffee farmer, has been producing coffee for 26 years, 16 years of which he has exclusively been focused on specialty coffee. With the help of his brother, he designs and builds all of the industry leading equipment that he uses to process coffee on his farm. He uses bio-reactors, that he built for controlled fermentation, as well as being able to maintain constant control of factors like temperature, pH, and brix. This is no small endeavour and requires a huge amount of dedication to the process.

Andrew had the opportunity to visit Wilton in October of 2023, after meeting him in El Salvador in March of that year and had a phenomenal 3 days at his farm with him & his team. We've been purchasing his coffees ever since and welcomed him to our shop in Spring of 2025. His farm is a beautiful eco-system filled with local species of birds, animals, plants, all the which is surrounded by extremely healthy vegetation amongst one hundred hectares of specialty coffee, and we love purchasing his coffees.
