Pacamara: A Big Deal in Coffee

Pacamara is a fascinating variety with deep roots in El Salvador. Originally bred for its disease resistance, this hybrid is known for its abnormally large beans—thanks to its Maragogype lineage. While Maragogype itself can be a bit tricky in the cup, Pacamara, crossed with the gentler Pacas variety, unlocks incredible potential.

At Finca Peña Redonda, Carlos Lemus has mastered the art of bringing out the best in this complex variety. Inheriting the four-hectare farm from his father, Carlos has dedicated himself to refining its coffee production—a commitment that earned him ninth place in the 2017 Cup of Excellence. His expertise ensures that this Pacamara is nothing short of exceptional.

This coffee can be best summed up with intense notes of dark chocolate, sweet marmalade, and a port wine finish. Ideal as both filter and espresso style.
