This coffee is from Santa Maria farm in the Aranjuez region of Matagalpa, Nicaragua. Owned by Victor Robelo and part of Grupo Las Nubes, the farm sits at 1380-1500 meters altitude within La Reserva El Arenal, growing coffee in the shade of the forest. The coffee is processed using the honey method, with Caturra, Yellow Catuaí, and Red Catuaí varieties. The beans are pulped on the farm, stored in grainpro bags, then cleaned and dried under sun on raised beds. The farm has been in the family since 2011 and Victor is the third generation growing coffee since 1937.
