Finca Pashapa

This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.

The story

The Salazar family began cultivating coffee at Finca Pashapa in 1965, when the surrounding area was better known for sugar cane. Counter Culture bought 30 bags in 2002, met the family in 2005, and first visited the farm in 2008. Roberto and his siblings now run the farm and family business together.

Challenges

The Salazar family continues organic production and environmental stewardship despite significant climate-related challenges.

Innovations

The farm uses self-made fertilizers and maintains a robust shade system. Roberto manages sales and the Cocafelol cooperative, Mauricio leads production, and Yeny handles finance.

Published coffees linked to this farm

For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.

Blend contributor: Finca Pashapa is named for one component in this coffee's catalog record, not the entire blend.
