Pacamara

Pacamara is a deliberate cross of Pacas and the giant-beaned Maragogipe, created by El Salvador's ISIC (Salvadoran Institute for Coffee Research) starting in 1958. It produces enormous beans and a distinctive, often polarising cup that swings between bright fruit, florals, and savory or herbal notes. A frequent Cup of Excellence winner in El Salvador and beyond, Pacamara can be genetically unstable and requires careful selection to stay true to type.
