NICARAGUA | Monte Libano | Caturra | Washed

Monte Libano, nestled in the scenic Dipilto Mountains of northern Nicaragua near the Honduran border, was acquired in 2017, as the Valladárez family expanded their coffee operation to focus more on specialty, and stands as a testament to their dedication to coffee excellence. The farm has a unique combination of microclimates, soil diversity, and altitude which makes it ideal for growing high quality coffees – many varieties are cultivated; including Caturra, Maracaturra, Pacamara, and Geisha, and under the management of Luis's son, Olman Valladárez, the farm has flourished.  

Beyond coffee, the Valladárez family's commitment extends to community well-being, sponsoring public health campaigns and organizing celebratory events. The philosophy at Monte Libano revolves around creating a sustainable and familial atmosphere, where everyone involved, from collaborators to consumers, enjoys the fruits of their labor.
