RHOC - NICARAGUA

from £14.00

We’re tasting orange wine and pineapple.

Farm: Las Hortensias

Varietal: Maragogype Maracaturra

Process: Anaerobic Natural

Altitude: 1300 metres above sea level

Las Hortensias and Finca Bethania are farms we have worked with since the inception of Coborn. Both farms have been managed by sisters Martha and Ana since 2013, when they inherited them from their father. At the time, the farms were mostly planted with Catimor, chosen for its high yields. The sisters shifted the focus toward quality and gradually replanted with varieties like Catuai, Parainema, Maracaturra, Gesha, and Java. Ana and Martha are also responsible for Cafetos de Segovia*

*Cafetos de Segovia is a coffee exporter based in Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua. It was founded in 2015 by two Nicaraguan sisters, Martha and Ana Alvir. The sisters fled Nicaragua during the civil war in 1977 and settled abroad, but they never forgot their homeland. In 2013, their father passed down his two coffee farms to them: Bethania and Hortensias. Soon after, they decided to open a processing center and start an export business to bring their coffee to market — and that’s how Cafetos de Segovia was born. Today, the mill employs seven full-time local staff and up to 60 seasonal workers during the harvest. The business gives the sisters a meaningful reason to return to Nicaragua each year — to reconnect with their family, enjoy their culture, grow their own coffee, and support better economic opportunities for coffee growers in their region.
