Pinares

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

Pinares has appeared in multiple SEY harvests. For the 2025-labeled release, importer Collaborative Coffee Source and exporter Benjamin Paz helped preserve the tiny volume as a single separated lot instead of blending it into a larger export.

Challenges

The farm primarily cultivates the Pacas variety, which is a natural mutation of Bourbon that is highly susceptible to disease. This susceptibility makes the variety inherently riskier and more challenging to grow compared to other hybrid coffee plants.

Innovations

The supply chain preserved a very small farm lot as a separate export despite the usual economic pressure to blend such volume into a larger shipment.

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.

Research sources & verification

These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
