Finca Las Isabellas is a farm located in Apaneca, Ahuachapán, El Salvador, at an altitude ranging from 900 to 1,340 meters above sea level. The farm has been owned by Emilio Lopez since 2007. With a total area of 245 hectares, 87 hectares are now a natural reserve that shelters endangered endemic species and serves as a water source for neighboring communities. The farm currently produces the varieties Pacamara, Pacas, and Red Bourbon.
We have been partners with Odyssey Coffees for ten years, a project led by Emilio López in El Salvador. As a producer, Emilio manages six farms: La Cumbre, El Manzano, Ayutepeque, Las Isabellas, Tapantogusto, and Las Piedras. Odyssey’s values are based on the long-term sustainability of their farms, surrounding communities, and the environment.
With this in mind, Emilio López is committed to building state-of-the-art facilities, providing optimal working conditions for his team, and certifying his farms with Rainforest Alliance to ensure compliance with high social, environmental, and quality standards.
Emilio and his team are responsible for the cultivation, harvesting, post-processing, storage, and export of the coffee, providing roasters and partners with full traceability and transparency from seed to cup.
