SOILS: Clay Loam / Rich Volcanic Soils
CLIMATE: The Farms location provides the perfect conditions to produce high ground quality coffees: cool temperatures 59 – 73.4 F average (15-23 C), perfect rain patterns (2,000 – 2,600 mm/year), clean mountain air, and clean and fresh rainwater.
ELEVATION: The coffee is grown at elevations ranging from 2,625 – 3,773 Feet Above Sea Level (800 – 1,150 MASL). It is a well-known fact that the higher the elevation in which coffee is grown, the better the quality. The reason for this is that the coffee ripening process is slower so the bean has more time to fully develop all its characteristics of acidity, body, & aroma.
COFFEE VARIETY: The best quality coffee varieties are planted in the farm -
Caturra, Maragojipe, Catimore - Castillo de Colombia. These coffee varieties exhibit outstanding cup quality.
All these factors help to create a unique and outstanding cup of coffee showing a pronounced acidity, strong body, and sweet aroma, the finest coffee Nicaragua has to offer.
PROCESS
Our high ground coffees are processed using the Wet Method which is considered the process of higher quality and is traded at a higher price level.
Sorting and cleaning are necessary after harvesting the ripe cherries. After sorting and cleaning, the pulp is removed from the cherry. This process is the main difference between dry and wet methods, as the flesh is separated from the fruit before drying. The step is referred to as "pulping".
The pulping is done by machine - the cherries are pressed between fixed and moving surfaces. The flesh and the skin of the fruit remain on one side, the beans still enclosed in their parchment on the other side. The distance of the moving surfaces is constantly adapted so that the beans are not damaged.
Next, the coffee cherry's mucilage is removed through fermentation, in this coffee farm a system which reduces labor in the coffee wet mill by 50% has been implemented. Finally, the beans are dried, either in the sunlight or using forced-air drying.
In our case, the coffee beans are sun-dried in a Coffee Mill of our choosing. There are many Coffee Mills in Matagalpa which provide that service.
Electricity runs in the farm, though the wet mill is powered by combustion stationary motors and a water wheel.
Labor in Rural Nicaragua is the cheapest in Central America starting @ $0.92 / hr.
