Quick Overview

Santa Maura is located in the northern central part of Nicaragua, in the mountainous area where the Dariense and Isabelia mountain ranges meet. It is set within the 'Reserva Natural Datanlí-El Diabolo' nature reserve.

The farm and the people living on it are very concerned about the environment and an area equal to the entire coffee producing area is also preserved as virgin forest.

A lovely clear, bold cup with a bright acidity and a juicy mouthfeel. We found some great notes of lychees and elderflower.
The farm's proud motto is, "Taste the fruits of our labours" and we implore you to do just that, it's delicious.

Product Description

Santa Maura is located in the northern central part of Nicaragua, in the mountainous area where the Dariense and Isabelia mountain ranges meet.

Santa Maura is set within the 'Reserva Natural Datanlí-El Diabolo' nature reserve and covers an area of 630 hectares, of which 280 hectares are planted under coffee. The farm cultivates 4 varietals of Arabica, including this 100% Pacamara – a hybrid of Maragogype (from Typica) and Pacas (from Bourbon).

The farm and the people living on it are very concerned about the environment and an area equal to the entire coffee producing area is also preserved as virgin forest. The forest, its fauna and flora are protected and continuously studied by the Environmental Science Department of the Central American University (UCA), which has an experimental station at the very heart of the farm. In addition, the farm also produces its own energy from an environmentally-friendly hydraulic turbine, thus avoiding the pollution caused by the use of fossil fuels. Much of the fertilizer used to nourish the coffee plants is produced by a worm farm where discarded coffee pulp is broken down over a period of several weeks before being returned to the land. The parchment from the dry milling of the coffee is also recycled and is used to provide fuel for the ovens in the main kitchen.

The farm's proud motto is “Taste the fruits of our labours”.
