What the Brand Says
**Region:**Chalcuapa, Santa Ana Elevation: 1355 masl About: When the Pacas family first purchased La Esperanza, in 2010, the farm needed some TLC. Having been neglected for years, but showing significant potential, the family decided to undergo a complete renovation program; not only replanting the farm, but also redesigning it in the process. Now, about two-thirds of the way through renovation, La Esperanza has become a large variety garden. Having been divided into 18 separate tablons (individual lots), each growing a different variety; including Pacas, Orange Bourbon, Bernardina, and Mokka, to name a few. Due to the steep gradient, unique micro-climate and biodiversity, and the Pacas family’s hard work, coffees from La Esperanza have placed in the Cup of Excellence competition three times, most recently in 2021. Orange Bourbon is a very rare variety and is a natural mutation of Red Bourbon. When ripe, the cherries turn bright orange with brown spots. **Region:**Chalcuapa, Santa Ana Elevation: 1355 masl About: When the Pacas family first purchased La Esperanza, in 2010, the farm needed some TLC.
