Los Nubarrones - Nicaragua - 250g - Espresso

This smooth, stonefruit like cup showcases the aromatic Java variety from its reclaimed farm beautifully Like most coffee farms in Nicaragua Los Nubarrones has a rocky past. Mariano & Emir’s story is no exception! From 1975 to 1979, the Nicaraguan revolution hit the entire country, but it was even more intense at the Honduran border where this farm is located. This forced the family to emigrate to the USA. They returned to Ocotal six years later to find that their house and much of their farmland had been seized by the government. From the 70 hectares of land they previously owned, the Government kindly returned 5.6 Hectares to Mariano and Emir. Due to low coffee prices the Montealegre family decided to grow speciality and create their own dry mill in addition to the wet mill, adding value to their product. Having this milling station so nearby allows them to process the coffee without delaying, this often leads to a higher quality cup. Their mill submits lots to the national Cup of Excellence every year, and always ranks highly!
