This coffee is grown in the soft, volcanic clay of Mauricio Salaverria’s, ‘Finca Himalaya’ in the region of Apaneca, El Salvador. Coffee has been grown on this farm since 1875, with the reputation as the first ‘specialty coffee’ farm in the small Central American country. The #5 (or Mambo #5) lot is a ‘Cuzcatleco’ varietal lot, which is an F1 hybrid; a first-generation varietal after cross-breeding between two different coffee varietals.
