El Salvador Finca Las Mercedes Pacamara Washed gives a clean sweet cup that brings you back with complex herbal and surprisingly bright tones. Our Pacamara flavor profile brings out lemon grass, sweet molasses brown sugar with a finish of cocoa powder.




Fun fact: The Pacamara variety is a hybrid cross between the Pacas (from El Salvador and named after the Pacas Family) and the giant elephant bean varietal Maragogipe. Its larger than normal appearance is the reason farmers from Las Mercedes call it "The King Bean" of Central America. Pacamara Wash has been awarded 2019 "Best Coffee of Origin-Tecapa Chinameca".

As part of Klatch Coffee’s direct trade partnership, 25 cents of every pound of this coffee sold goes to support community sports programs and medical clinics in the Las Mercedes community. Finca Las Mercedes is a beautiful coffee farm with owners dedicated to care for their community, their workers, and the environment with the same care that they invest into their coffee. The Ortiz family provides healthcare, food, and clothing to those in the community that are in need. Las Mercedes is committed to ecological care, making efforts to preserve natural wildlife, to maintain compliance with our certifications in the way that the mill’s by-products are disposed of, and to avoid contamination. In the last few years, the Ortiz family has prioritized preservation by planting native trees.
