El Salvador Las Mercedes Pacamara Black Honey

We’re thrilled to welcome back El Salvador Las Mercedes Pacamara Black Honey, now presented in a 170g Pearl Reserve box! This extraordinary coffee showcases an experimental Black Honey process, bursting with vibrant notes of bergamot, black currant, and Asian pear, layered with green grape, golden raisin, and luscious stone fruit sweetness. A silky, juicy body leads to a honeyed finish with delicate floral aromatics, creating a cup that’s beautifully bright, balanced, and unforgettable.

Crafted with care by our longtime Las Mercedes partner, Lucia Ortiz, this is more than a coffee—it’s a sensory experience worth savoring. Enjoy it as a pour over, cold brew, or latte, then keep reading for some of our favorite recipes—including a special coffee syrup you can transform into a sweet dessert for someone special.

This experimental Black Honey process produces beautifully caramelized beans. The Pacamara variety is grown in the La Primavera lot, an area with dense shade and a large tree canopy—conditions that seem to enhance sugar caramelization during the honey process. This exclusive brew is crafted especially for Klatch Coffee—and it’s here to make your taste buds dance with joy.

The Pacamara variety is a hybrid cross between the Pacas (from El Salvador and named after the Pacas Family) and the giant elephant bean varietal "Maragogipe." Its larger than normal appearance is the reason farmers from Las Mercedes call it "The King Bean" of Central America.
