What it is and what sets it apart: Pacamara is a variety or species documented in specialty coffee. Pacas × Maragogype cross: very large bean and generous cup; needs careful grind and dose. Also known as Pacas × Maragogipe. Reference genetics: Pacas × Maragogype cross (El Salvador).
Flavours in the cup: Ripe fruit, milk chocolate, soft florals and broad body; the large bean shapes extraction. Process (washed, natural, honey), elevation and roast can shift this guidance a lot.
Technical notes and growing zone: Usual zone and origins: El Salvador. Guidance altitude: 1.300–1.800 m. Habit: Compact to medium shrub with short internodes and a rounded habit. Cultivation: Performs well at medium–high density; watch rust and nutrition at elevation.
Usage tips: Filter and medium espresso highlight sweetness; avoid very dark roasts if you want fruit. In Cafesito, search the name with origin and process; compare lots before judging the variety.
Common mistakes: Confusing Caturra/Pacas/Villa Sarchí with Réunion Bourbon; assuming the same growing map.
