Finca Himalaya is located on soft volcanic clay in the Apaneca Mountains of El Salvador. It is managed by long term friend Mauricio, here he cultivates shade-grown coffee. Ripe red cherries are hand-picked, sorted for quality, and dried on raised beds with proper airflow, ensuring even drying over 20-30 days. This slow process allows the beans to absorb sweetness and fruitiness from the cherry pulp and skin while reaching an optimal moisture content of 10-12%. To maximize flavor retention, the dried beans are stored in their cherry pods until milling and export preparation.
