Meet our first coffee out of Nicaragua. This coffee is a representation of Gold Mountain Coffee Growers. Gold Mountain both owns a farm in Nicaragua (Finca Idealista) and also works to connect other Nicaraguan farmers with roasters. This is an opportunity to work directly with producers who are pushing quality.
This particular coffee is a microlot known as Tropical Fruit Symphony. It comes from Roger & Isabel’s farm (Las Mercedes) in Matagalpa. Roger has a degree in agronomy and loves sharing technical knowledge. Their farm has a clean water source that supplies the community with drinking water. One very unique part of Las Mercedes is its PVC tubing with tiny perforations underneath the groves of trees so that runoff from washing coffee is filtered by earth instead of polluting water streams.
