This coffee type comes from Finca Las Mercedes/Aconcagua in West El Salvador, in Tacuba. The neighboring El Imposible national forest blends into the farm because the coffee trees are on average 27 years old and the shade trees are native and high. The farm has been devoted to growing coffee since the late 1940’s. Finca Las Mercedes is almost inaccessible due to the intense topography. The farm has a breathtaking view of the landscape including the Apaneca-Ilamatepec mountain range and even the Pacific Ocean. The farm is operated by dedicated farmers who continuously care for their community and the surrounding environment all while seeking to provide specialty coffee!
