What Prodigal Coffee Roasters say
Brown Sugar / Tart Cherry / Apple Crumble
Cultivar Parainema
Wilfredo Mena owns a 25-manzana (about 17.5 hectares) farm in the Alotepec Metapan region of the Chalatenango department. The farm is home to around 70,000 coffee trees consisting of Parainema, Pacamara, Pacas, Catuai, and Cuscatleco varieties and different types of fruit trees. Mena's Natural coffees dry for 20 to 26 days on African beds.
Inconsistent rain has been challenging in recent years and controlling some pests is an annual fight. Labor has been scarcer and more expensive.
