Finca Himalaya, a 60-hectare estate nestled in the Apaneca mountain range of Ahuachapán, El Salvador, stands as a beacon of specialty coffee excellence. Established in the late 19th century, it has been managed by the Salaverría family for generations. Today, Mauricio A. Salaverría leads the farm, which thrives at an altitude of 1,500 metres with rich volcanic soils and a cool highland climate. The farm's extensive shade cover from pine, cypress, and inga trees creates an ideal environment for cultivating high-quality coffee.

Finca Himalaya is renowned for its diverse range of varieties, including Bourbon, Pacas, Pacamara, Maragogype, and Anacafé-14, all grown with a commitment to sustainability and biodiversity. The farm gained international acclaim as the birthplace of the “Supersonic Natural” process, developed in partnership with Project Origin. This innovative approach enhances fruit-forward flavours and complexity through controlled fermentation and drying methods.

Mauricio's spirit of experimentation, combined with the family's deep heritage, has positioned Finca Himalaya at the forefront of El Salvador’s specialty coffee movement. The farm has earned accolades in the Cup of Excellence, serving as a reference point for producers and buyers worldwide.
