Pacas, low Kaddura in Brazil and Sarchi in Costa Rica are all natural variants of bourbon. Like other widely cultivated low-bourbon varieties, Pacas is a single gene mutation. It is low mainly because the coffee tree has a small head and has high and low yield potential. It can be mixed with other fruits and other plants to increase the yield of coffee cherries.

The variety was found in 1949 on a farm of the Pacas family in the Santa Ana region of El Salvador. In 1960, the Salvadoran Coffee Institute (ISIC) began a pedigree selection project for Pacas (through successive generations of individual plant selection, also known as individual plant selection). This variety is widely cultivated in El Salvador and accounts for about 25% of its production.

In 1974, the Honduran Coffee Institute introduced this variety and planted it in Honduras.
