ABOUT THE COFFEE

Meeting Mauricio, his passion for coffee is plain to see. Driven to innovate, he has built on years of knowledge at Finca Himalaya to consistently produce Cup of Excellence winning coffees.

Finca Cruz Gorda was acquired by Mauricios family in the 1940s, to produce coffee alongside Finca Himalaya. Situated in Ilamatepec, El Salvadors 'Flower Route', the region is known for for the amazing bio diversity.

Walking his estates, it becomes instantly clear that the level of execution is in another league; with meticulous lot separation, different processing styles, huge wooden wine crates and anaerobic tanks all visible. Like The Barn, Mauricio is driven by a desire to reduce his environmental impact, using rainwater for his washed process coffee and reusing the skin of the coffee cherries after they are pulped to produce cascara.

The terroir has an ideal combination of clay and volcanic soils, producing coffees with character. Most lots are grown under shade and across the farm cypress help provide habitat for a variety of flora and fauna.

ABOUT The Barn

THE BARN is a leading coffee roaster in Europe and represents the Specialty Coffee Movement at the highest level since 2010. Their beans are served by many coffee shops and home brewers across the globe.

Barn's vision has been very clear from the start: they focus on making coffees better and better. No compromise - just great coffee. Never blending coffees in order to showcase specific flavour profiles and to present each farm The Barn works with. This makes farmers proud and the product fully traceable.
