This is a unique Pacamara lot from the Hartmann Estate in Panama. The Institute for Coffee Research (ISIC) created the Pacamara hybrid in El Salvador in the 1950s. The variety is a cross of Pacas (a Bourbon mutation) and Maragogype. The Pacamara plant is relatively short with high productivity and is prized for its large cherries. The name comes from the first 4 letters of each parent.

After harvest, the coffee cherries are pulped. The coffee and mucilage is moved to raised drying beds. Throughout the drying process, the cherries are visually inspected to remove damaged or over- and under-ripe cherries; and then laid in thin layers on raised beds. Raised beds allow for better airflow throughout drying that help prevent over-ripening, fermenting or spoiling. This small-scale, careful execution of the natural process is what the Hartmann Estate has called the "Winey" Natural process in order to differentiate it from the larger-scale Natural process that is carried out in Brazil.
