Farm Story:

It was founded in 1872 by Margarita Lucia Diaz de Lopez's great-grandfather, Mr. Cornelio Lemus, and has remained in the family for five generations. In 2004, Margarita's son, Emilio Lopez Diaz, began to supervise and manage La Cumbre. La Cumbre originally grew red bourbon, and in the last few years after rusting, he underwent a mayoral renovation. Yellow bourbon and Pacamara varieties were introduced to the farm in 2013, followed by Gesha in 2014 and SL-34 in 2015. In 2016 and 2017, the renewal continues to add Ethiopian heirloom varieties, which will soon shine and become part of the La Cumbre variety.

All the post-production work is done at Beneficio El Manzano, a state-of-the-art facility located near El Manzano Farm. The factory has a production capacity of about 600 tons of exported coffee, which is mainly composed of high-end specialty coffee, mainly concentrated in natural, honey and complete washing processes. The plant is also used by different institutions and entities for CQI to provide newly launched Q-Processing courses, and Pinhalense milling equipment manufacturers are also testing and developing new equipment focusing on high-end coffee.

Finca La Cumbre and Beneficio El Manzano are fully operated and managed by a fully vertically integrated coffee group called Cuatro M Cafes, which operates in El Salvador, the United States and Brazil. These businesses include brands such as Finca Ayutepeque,Fazenda Santana,Topeca Coffee,Odyssey Coffees.
