Aserejé



Mira lo que se avecina
a la vuelta de la esquina,
viene Diego rumbeando.
Con la luna en las pupilas
y en su traje agua marina
van restos de contrabando.

Y donde más no cabe un alma
allí se mete a darse caña
poseido por el ritmo ragatanga
y el dj que lo conoce
toca el himno de las doce
para Diego la canción más deseada.
Y la baila… y la goza … y la canta…

Aserejé ja de je de jebe tu de jebere
sebiunouva majabi an de bugui an de buididipi.
Aserejé ja de je de jebe tu de jebere
sebiunouva majabi an de bugi an de buididipi.

No es cosa de brujería
que lo encuentre to los días
por donde voy caminando,
Diego tiene chulería
y ese punto de alegría
rastafari afrogitano

y donde más no cabe un alma
allí se mete a darse caña
poseido por el ritmo ragatanga
y el dj que lo conoce
toca el himno de las doce
para Diego la canción más deseada.
Y la baila… y la goza… y la canta…

Third Wave Coffee


The Third Wave Coffee refers to a current trend to produce super premium coffee, considering it as an artisanal foodstuff, like wine, rather than a commodity, like wheat. This involves improvements at all stages of production, from improving coffee bean growing, harvesting, and processing, to stronger relationships between coffee growers and coffee traders and roasters, to higher quality and fresh roasting to skilled brewing. These kind of coffees are aimed to a great percentage of coffee drinkers that are willing to make an extra effort to appreciate it on a higher level. Try our coffee

Back to Work











Holidays are gone, beaches at El Salvador were fine, one a very open space with the remains of hundreds of trees uprooted by the last hurricane, friends and a lot of fiesta. The other; narrow and surrounded by cliffs, unspoiled, very private, just the family. Kids played a lot but I returned more tired, am I getting older?
