2009 Nicaragua Cup of Excellence® Winning Farms - Auction Jul 2, 2008
Lot#: 15 Luis Beltrán Cornejo Barreda - La Leona
Overview

I have owned the farm for the last 25 years. I inherited from my father. I like the coffee production and since I was little, I have worked in the coffee cultivation. My grandfather as a producer and my father is a producer also. I inherited the joy of being a coffee grower. I continue with the tradition.

I have a water source from a virgin mountain and pay special attention to the picking process, just cutting the ripe beans, special care to the time of fermentation – just the time required – good cleaning and organization at the wet milling process. I do not store coffee.

I feel so happy and hope to continue to improve the production of my farm and also our standard of living.
