Los Suyates

Tasting Notes Green Apple, Blueberry, Cacao Nib

Variety Catuai / Catimor

Process Supernatural

Elevation 1,200 – 1,500 m

Region Nueva Segovia

Less than 5km from the border of Nicaragua and Honduras, lies Los Suyates, nestled in the dense countryside beside the small town El Volcán. Producer Mario Gonzalez, with the help of Jairo, his son-in-law and a qualified agronomist, nurtures the soil and ensures biodiversity is supported on their farm so they are as self-sustaining as possible. Situated at 1450-1700masl the catuai and catimor trees benefit from local flora and fauna, the microclimate, wind and sun protection from the pine trees that were once used for timber, and also the organic material from the fruit trees on the farm.

La Bastilla Estate

Tasting Notes Lime, Raisin, Roasted Hazelnut 

Variety Sudan Rume, Sarchimor

Process Washed

Elevation 1100-1450masl

Region Las Brisas, Jinotega

La Bastilla and Santa Luz were established in 2003 from two abandoned estates in Jinotega and Matagalpa. La Bastilla Estate was divided into zones based on different growing conditions, including humidity, elevation, soil and shade, allowing them to plant a wide variety of coffee cultivars. Now, each year La Bastilla produces around 350 micro-lots, distinguished by these different growing zones on the farm. This lot from the Las Brisas zone was fully washed, then dried in a controlled environment at 45°C. The company has worked to create a fully integrated seed-to-export supply chain, building nurseries, wet and dry processing mills, quality assessment and export facilities, alongside numerous social enterprises. They established a school for the children of their workers, which has grown into an independent institution on the estate and an invaluable resource to the surrounding rural communities. The school is also involved in the running of the Ecolodge, the Nursery, and the Egg, Dairy, Bakery and Animal production facilities, equipping students with essential life skills.
