Nicaragua Finca Las Hortencias

The Town Roaster Nicaragua Single Origin coffee beans from Finca Las Hortencias

Finca Las Hortensias is operated under the third generation of coffee producers from the Albir family. The Albir sisters, Ana and Martha, who currently run the farm, inherited it from their father in 1994. In 2015, they invested in a mill as well, and began their milling operation as Cafetos de Segovia in 2016, providing milling and exporting services not only for their own family farm but also for 11 nearby farms owned by friends and family.
The 2.8-hectare farm is situated in a renowned coffee- producing region in Nicaragua, with a microclimate perfectly suited for growing high-quality coffee. Year after year, the farm participates in the Cup of Excellence competition and in international auctions.
The farm takes special care to preserve the surrounding ecosystem and wildlife through their ecoforestry model, maintaining native flora, and protecting water sources.They also work to care for their community, as the area around the farm faces a higher level of poverty. They hire within their community to provide jobs to its residents.
Going forward, Finca Las Horensias plans to continue its ecoforestry production system on the farm to preserve the quality of harvested coffee.
