Divisadero – Finca Himalaya
The famous Finca Himalaya has been growing coffee since 1875 and is considered to be the one of the first specialty coffee farm in El Salvador. Producer Mauricio Salaverría is also the pioneer for the Project Origin Supernatural process. Finca Himalaya cultivates much of their coffee under shade grown conditions that provides habitats for a variety of fauna and helps grow the cherries to produce extraordinary flavors.



Arabica Variety Red Bourbon
Bourbon is the most famous of the bourbon-descended varieties. It is a tall variety characterized by relatively low production, susceptibility to the major diseases, and excellent cup quality. The name of this cultivar comes from the beautiful red color of the fully ripe cherries.
French missionaries introduced Bourbon from Yemen to Bourbon Island (now La Réunion)—giving it the name it has today—in the early 1700s. Until the mid-19th century, bourbon did not leave the island. But beginning in the mid-1800s, the variety spread to new parts of the world as the missionaries moved to establish footholds in Africa and the Americas.

The bourbon variety was introduced to Brazil around 1860, and from there rapidly spread north into other parts of South and Central America, where it is still cultivated today. Here it became mixed with other bourbon-related varieties, introduced from India as well as Ethiopian landraces. Nowadays, there are many bourbon-like varieties found in East Africa, but none exactly match the distinct Bourbon variety that can be found in Latin America.
Today in Latin America, bourbon itself has largely been replaced by varieties that descend from it (notably including Caturra, Catuai, and Mundo Novo), although bourbon itself it is still cultivated in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Peru and Colombia.

 

Fermentation Natural
Natural process, dry process, unwashed, or natural sundried all refer to the same method of processing that usually involves drying coffee cherries either on patios or raised beds in the sun. To prevent the cherries from spoiling, they are raked and turned throughout the day and then covered at night or during rainstorms. This process, which can take 3-6 weeks normally, is the more-traditional method of processing coffee. This process of drying the cherries out in the sun originated in places without reliable access to water and usually works best in areas with low humidity and infrequent rain — such as parts of Ethiopia and Yemen — although there are farmers using the natural process in other places as well, like central or south America.

After the cherries have been dried to the optimum level, they are sent to mills to separate the seeds from the rest of the dried fruit, otherwise known as being “hulled.”
