Behind the beans
Forager showcases the seasonality of coffee. Exploring new origins and flavours, highlighting producers and celebrating relationships. Roasted for espresso, this coffee changes with the seasons.
Origin: Nicaragua, Santa Luz
Hacienda Santa Luz was one of two farms bought as abandoned lots back in 2003, with a long-term view to re- establishing coffee plantations but in a sustainable way. This has involved not only the replanting of coffee trees with new and diverse coffee varieties but also establishing a professional organisation. All operations including export are handled directly on the farm.
The mountains of Matagalpa provide a unique microclimate for the farm that Ricardo Herrera and Marco Tulio Gonzalez are able to manage with a team of 50 permanent workers and an additional 400 seasonal pickers.
