EL SALVADOR – FINCA MAJAHUAL

Finca Majahual is one of the historic coffee farms of western El Salvador, located in the Los Naranjos Valley along the Apaneca-Ilamatepec mountain range. The farm is approximately 90 hectares and traces its modern history to 1936, when Rafael Meza-Ayau Sr. acquired properties in the valley, an area long recognized for its cool climate, volcanic soils, and strong tradition of coffee cultivation. By the 1950s, coffee from Finca Majahual was being exported under the Los Naranjos name and had earned a reputation in global markets for quality and consistency.

Today, Finca Majahual continues under family stewardship, with a focus on maintaining both coffee quality and the ecological health of the land. Most of the farm’s production has historically centered on Bourbon, one of the varieties most closely associated with El Salvador’s coffee identity, while newer specialty lots may include Pacamara and other carefully separated varieties and processes.
