Yellow Pacamara is a fairly rare coffee varietal. A natural mutation of the Red Pacamara, it was first discovered on Limoncillo Farm in the early 2000s. Yellow Pacamara cherries, when ripe, are yellow (instead of the typical red). Rare, and also difficult to cultivate, as Yellow Pacamara is nutritionally demanding, susceptible to pests and very low producing. But those who appreciate Single Origin coffees will really love it as it produces truly exceptional cup quality. Our own toughest critic, Jeff Babcock, Zoka Founder/CEO scored this coffee at 90 points!
