Kima Coffee

About This Coffee

This Geisha coffee from Finca Etiopía in El Salvador is produced by Sigfredo Corado in the Santa Ana region at 1,950-2,150 meters altitude. The farm, established in 2018 as part of Los Naranjos Café, covers 34.5 hectares with 13 dedicated to coffee cultivation under native tree shade. Located behind Volcán Ilamatepec, the farm benefits from deep volcanic soils and an ideal microclimate. The washed processing involves careful cherry selection, depulping, controlled fermentation to remove mucilage, washing, and slow drying on raised beds. The coffee features bright, clean, and juicy characteristics with elegant floral notes, fresh citrus, white fruits, and vibrant acidity. The farm achieved 22nd place in the 2025 Cup of Excellence.

Kima was named Best Specialty Coffee of Spain in 2024 and ranked in the top 100 coffee destinations worldwide by Neodrinks in 2025. Rabi works exclusively with 100% Arabica specialty coffee, hand roasting each batch and selecting from a wide range of origins that includes rare varietals like Geisha from Colombia and Wild Orchid Liberica from Vietnam. An in house academy trains professionals from the hospitality sector, with baristas traveling to Malaga specifically for the courses. The philosophy is direct: flavor, traceability, zero artifice.
