Description
This is one of the lots that make up our direct trade initiative with producers in Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua.
The Los Volcancitos farm is located in the municipality of Mozonte, within the department of Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua. There, its owner, Sergio Gutierrez, primarily cultivates the Catuai Rojo variety, along with others such as Pacamara, Java, and Parainema. Additionally, he has experimental varieties like Sidra, Laurina, Amaro, and Geisha, which will begin harvesting in the coming years.
In the face of climate change challenges, Sergio strives each year to increase shade on the farm by planting a significant number of trees. Furthermore, the farm is surrounded by a 500-hectare pine forest reserve, offering a unique natural environment. To improve soil quality, he utilizes coffee pulp as compost.
Regarding the process for this lot, harvesting is done manually, selecting beans at their optimal ripeness and discarding any immature ones. Afterwards, the cherries are carefully depulped, leaving the mucilage intact, and dry-fermented for 24 hours. Finally, they are transferred to African drying beds for about 35 days to reach their optimal moisture level, where they are constantly moved to detect and discard imperfect beans.
