Las Mercedes, El Salvador

Las Mercedes has been around for 5 generations of the Ortiz family. The Ortiz family is a pioneer in coffee producing and have been doing it since 1866! They have won the Cup of Excellence El Salvador in 2006 and other awards in recent years. Their dedication to their community can be seen through their free healthcare clinic, academic donations and community clean water access.

We are happy to continue working with Lucia year after year. Even before Elixr roasted, we have enjoyed her coffees through other roasters.
