El Salvador, the smallest and most densely populated country in Central America, has been growing coffee since 1740, according to relevant literature. The land area of growing coffee accounts for about 8% of the country, and Dazhi is divided into five main producing areas, namely Apaneca, Central Belt, Chichontepec, Tecapa & Cacahuatique Mountain Range, which are roughly distributed in the alpine slopes or plateau areas covered with volcanic ash above 1200 meters above sea level, most of which are planted in shade (planting Shade Grown under trees). The advantages of this method are that coffee beans can mature uniformly, honey mucus content increases and weight is high. Sweet polyphenols are more likely to form, allowing the main ingredients of coffee beans to be fully formed. For coffee trees with too much sunshine, the edges of the leaves will be rolled up, causing water loss, which is not conducive to photosynthesis, reduce carbon dioxide absorption, and reduce the combination of sugar. Coffee fruits are harvested only once a year, mostly from November to February. More than 60% of the varieties are bourbon strains. In particular, El Salvador is the most important country for growing Pacas and Pacamara. In addition, the coffee grading system in El Salvador is basically divided into three levels according to the altitude of planting, lowland CS (500m murmur900m), highland HG (900m Mel 1200m) and extremely highland SHG (1200m Mel -).

Borha Manor in El Salvador grows mainly bourbon coffee, and the planting area is distributed between the town of Apaneca and the living mountains of San Salvador, which has a wide range of native species and a good ecological environment. The Agua Caliente treatment plant is responsible for the delicate treatment of the Borha estate, and it is worth mentioning in particular that the source of water used in the delicate washing process is natural hot spring water from nearby.
