About the farmer(s)

Paola y Carlos Trujillo - Pacamara [natural] — Colombia

Paola & Carlos Trujillo are dedicated coffee growers. Paola, Carlos & their family own Patio Bonito, an 11-hectare farm, located in Caldono, Cauca. They are well-known in the area for growing high-quality coffee. There is a large variety of cultivars grown on the farm, Castillo, V. Colombia, Pink Bourbon, Geisha, Aji, Sidra, SL28, Wush Wush, Typica, Laurina & this Pacamara lot. Paola studied chemical engineering, & after her studies, she realised she wanted to join Carlos & support the family, producing coffee. This Pacamara was processed naturally. The ripest cherries were selected for processing, floated to remove defects, hand-sorted & then placed on raised beds in a covered area to dry for 14 days.

Pacamara is a coffee cultivar developed in 1958 by El Salvador's ISIC by crossing Pacas [a Bourbon mutation] and Maragogipe [a Typica mutation]. The idea was to cross the dwarf size & high production of Pacas with the higher cup quality of Maragogipe.
