Region: Chalcuapa , Santa Ana Elevation: 1450-1700 masl About: The Pac a s f a m i l y has been growing coffee in the mountains of El Salvador for more than five generations. We’re proud to call them one of our longest-standing producer relationships, having purchased their coffees since 2012. Together, we’ve seen many ups and downs —leaf rust, down years, the discovery of new varieties, growth and the ability to purchase more coffees, wildly fluctuating prices, global pandemics— we’ve seen a lot. But, through it all, the Pac a s f a m i l y has been our first stop on any trip to El Salvador, and together, we’ve been able to navigate most challenges that present themselves. This naturally processed Pac a mara is composed of coffees from all the Pac a s f a m i l y ’s farms. Blending coffees from multiple farms allows the Pac a s f a m i l y to optimize efficiency during processing and provide a consistent cup profile. Pac a mara , a hybrid of Pac a s and Maragogipe developed through the efforts of the Salvadoran Institute of Coffee Research, boasts sizeable beans and a distinctive flavor profile that sets it apart from less exotic varieties.
