The World's Renowned Coffee Estate - El Injerto

There are over ten thousand coffee estates worldwide, ranging from those producing commercial coffee beans to high-quality estates and those growing rare coffee varieties. Today, we'd like to introduce you to the prestigious top-tier coffee estate from Guatemala - El Injerto Estate.

Estate Introduction

El Injerto Estate is located in the famous Huehuetenango highlands of Guatemala. The Aguirre family has been growing coffee here since 1900. The estate name "Injerto" comes from a local fruit name. El Injerto Estate places special emphasis on environmental protection and organic cultivation techniques, implementing strict quality control to ensure the quality of green coffee beans. Through the efforts of the Aguirre family, El Injerto Estate has earned Rainforest Alliance certification and has been a frequent champion in many international coffee competitions since 2002.

El Injerto Estate (also translated as Grafting Estate) is one of the top estates in Guatemala. If it claims to be second, probably no one would dare to claim first! It has won many world-class competition awards, leading to its current achievements. Last year, the estate owner further elevated their estate's status, organizing global bidding events similar to Panama's famous Hacienda La Esmeralda. Naturally, the competition beans they release are quite exceptional. Notably, the 2012 first batch "Mocha variety" set a world record, reaching an astronomical price of "$500.5/pound USD," making it a truly deserved star estate!

For this competition, El Injerto Estate specially presented their "BEST Injerto" series, featuring small batches of exceptional quality and coffee varieties carefully selected from the estate. Experienced farmers meticulously selected ripe coffee cherries, and then cuppers eliminated batches that didn't meet quality standards. Under such strict screening criteria, Pacamara varieties from El Injerto Estate account for only about 8% of total production.

About the Pacamara Variety

Pacamara gained worldwide fame through the Cup of Excellence (COE) in 2004, frequently winning championships within 2-3 years. Pacamara produced by Guatemala's El Injerto Estate set a record price of $80.2 per pound for green beans in 2008.

The origin of the variety and its name: It is a hybrid derived from the elephant bean Maragogype and Pacas. The name "Pacamara" combines the first 4 letters of Maragogype and Pacas. It is an excellent coffee variety developed in El Salvador, with very large coffee beans similar to elephant beans, approximately 21-22 screen size. It has been an outstanding coffee variety in Central and South America in recent years. Every country or farm hopes to find suitable regions to cultivate this variety and produce excellent coffee, similar to Panama's Geisha. Pacamara coffee characteristics include bright fruit acidity and very pure, delicate sweetness.

Although Pacamara's appearance is somewhat similar to its cousin - the elephant bean variety. Since 2006, COE has cupped Pacamara from 30 estates, with some flavors truly belonging to superstars, such as Honduras' 2006 champion Santa Martha, El Salvador's 2007 third-place Cerro Negro (Black Mountain Estate), Guatemala's regular COE champion El Injerto, and El Salvador's 2008 runner-up Pacamal estate. These are all outstanding Pacamara representatives, but they are all award-winning batches, making them very expensive.
