El Salvador's fine coffee is concentrated in Santa Ana in the west and Charantan Nango volcanic rock producing areas in the northwest. Almost all of the top ten cup tests in recent years come from these two producing areas, with an altitude of about 900-1500 meters, mainly Bourbon (accounting for 68%). Pakas followed (29%), while mixed Pakamara, Duraai and Kadura accounted for only 3%.

The coffee harvest lasts from November to March. All are hand-picked to harvest fresh coffee.

Generally speaking, Salvadoran coffee inherits the mild quality of Central American coffee, which is soft, slightly sour and has a good sweetness. At the same time, it has its own characteristics: aromatic taste slightly sour, very soft; pure without impurities, taste balance is excellent; smooth feeling like cream chocolate is impressive; coffee in the mouth that kind of dense feeling makes coffee have a deep taste, long aftertaste Don't underestimate Salvador's coffee production. In its heyday, it was the fourth largest coffee producer in the world, but decades of civil war almost brought down the coffee industry. Fortunately, the war stopped in recent years and the coffee industry recovered. The only benefit of the civil war for El Salvador was that farmers left their fields barren and could not catch up with the most popular Catimo train of cultivation in the past two decades, thus preserving the ancient bourbon and tibeka varieties. In other words, El Salvador still cultivated in the most traditional shade method, which had a positive effect on the aroma of coffee. In 2005, the Salvadoran hybrid Pacamara showed off at the coe, which made many international cup testers confused and did not know how to grade it. Unexpectedly, this hybrid bean not only broke the existing aromatic boundaries of coffee, but also expanded the visibility of Salvadoran coffee.
