Carlos Batres operates in the Apaneca region of El Salvador, specifically within the Apaneca-Ilamatepec area. The coffee produced at his farm is cultivated at an altitude ranging between 1600 and 1800 meters above sea level.

The varietal landscape at the farm is focused on two primary cultivars. The catalog data indicates a consistent production of both Caturra and Pacamara varieties.

The processing portfolio for Carlos Batres is characterized by a singular focus on the washed method. All four lots recorded in the index utilize this traditional processing technique.

The catalog footprint for this producer includes four total lots harvested across recent years. These coffees have been featured by two different roasters.

Recent catalog examples include the Montecarlos Pacamara Education Lot and the 2025 Montecarlos Pacamara, both processed as washed coffees by Passenger Coffee. Additionally, George Howell Coffee has featured washed Caturra lots from the Montecarlos farm.

The work of Carlos Batres is defined by a consistent application of the washed process across both Caturra and Pacamara varietals.
