Description

It all started with a dream as a child, in which I longed to have my own farm to grow coffee; the years went by and with much effort I managed to prepare myself academically as an agronomist engineer.

In 2016 I had the opportunity to acquire the land and thus begin to materialize my dream; from that date begins Finca. El Guacalito first generation with the planting of the first coffee of the Catuai variety, three years later I managed to establish the African variety.

Currently I have been producing coffee for 5 years and I have participated four times in the Cup of Excellence obtaining places in the top ten 2024 and 2025.  My vision is to introduce new exotic varieties every year, in order to position Nicaragua as a country that offers quality, variety and diversity of coffee.

All this has been possible thanks to God, my family, friends who have been part of this process of which I am very happy and grateful, as well as to the organizers of this great event, which makes it possible to make us known in the international market.
