La Esperanza, Nicaragua

Martha has been directly involved in coffee production for 6 years, work and passion that comes from her parents and grandparents who have also been dedicated to coffee production for more than 80 years at Finca La Esperanza. Finca La Esperanza meant and means for them as a family new hope for her parents and a way to improve her standard of living. Originally, they were a family of 6 between brothers and sisters, due to life circumstances, they moved to live abroad but frequently visited their parents, gradually getting involved in the process of coffee production, which gave them a gradual experience into coffee and leading to a way to now being at the forefront of coffee processing and production.

Maria Esther tells us that she loves and enjoys each moment and each harvest. She enjoys the aroma of coffee-it brings back memories of her childhood but especially knowing that is a coffee grown under her leadership. On her farm, she has focused on producing coffee varieties that, in addition to being resistant, can give a better quality and that at the same time are profitable to provide me her family and workers. To date, some of the varieties grown are Catimor, Java, Catuai, Maragogype, Caturra. On the farm, the financial and logistical part of her is carried out by her husband Rodrigo, without whose support this would not be possible, and Elmer, a trusted man, directs the agronomic management and cultural work. This family work results in very clean and consistent coffees.
