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 coffee estates, and those cultivating rare coffee varieties. Today, we would like to introduce you to the prestigious top-tier coffee estate from Guatemala - El Injerto Estate.

Estate Introduction

El Injerto Estate is located on the famous Huehuetenango plateau in Guatemala. The Aguirre family has been cultivating coffee here since 1900. The estate name "Injerto" comes from a local fruit name. El Injerto Estate places special emphasis on ecological 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 consistent winner in many international coffee competitions since 2002.

El Injerto Estate (also translated as Graft 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 numerous world-class competition awards, leading to its current achievements. Last year, the estate owner further elevated the estate's status. Like Panama's famous La Esmeralda Estate, El Injerto Estate hosts global bidding competitions. Of course, the competition beans they release are exceptionally remarkable. Notably, the first batch of "Mocha Variety" in 2012 set a world record, reaching an astronomical price of "$500.5 per pound," becoming a truly star estate!

For this competition, El Injerto Estate specially launched the "BEST El Injerto" series, carefully selecting small batches of excellent quality and coffee varieties from within the estate. Experienced farmers meticulously select ripe coffee cherries, which are then screened by cuppers to eliminate batches that don't meet quality standards. Under such strict screening criteria, the Pacamara variety at El Injerto Estate accounts for only about 8% of total production.

About the Pacamara Variety

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

The origin of the variety and its name comes from crossing the Maragogype (Elephant Bean) with Pacas varieties. The name "Pacamara" is formed by combining the first 4 letters of Maragogype and Pacas. It is an excellent coffee variety developed in El Salvador. The coffee beans are very large, similar to Elephant Beans, about 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 for cultivating this variety to produce excellent coffee, similar to Panama's Geisha. The characteristics of Pacamara coffee include bright fruit acidity and very delicate, pure sweetness. Although Pacamara's appearance is quite similar to its cousin - the Elephant Bean variety.

Since 2006, COE has cupped Pacamara from 30 estates. Some flavors have truly been superstars, such as the 2006 Honduras champion Santa Martha, the 2007 El Salvador third-place Cerro Negro (Black Mountain Estate), Guatemala's regular COE champion estate El Injerto, and the 2008 El Salvador runner-up Pacamal Estate. These are all excellent representatives of Pacamara, but they are all award-winning batches, therefore commanding very high prices.

Pacamara offers full, rich, and complex flavors. Few coffee varieties possess both fruit acidity while maintaining prominent sweetness, with diverse notes of drupes, vanilla plants, tropical fruits, chocolate, and spiced sweetness.
