ABOUT:

Over five generations the Pacas family have become synonymous with quality, innovation and social responsibility in specialty coffee. Their incredible influence goes as far as having their own coffee  the Pacas varietal  which is bound to the history of El Salvador’s coffee production. 

Their state-of-the-art wet mill is located in the west of El Salvador on the Santa Ana volcano. However, their operations span across the industry including 19 associated farms, a roastery, exporting company, training centres and cafes.
