2009 Nicaragua Cup of Excellence® Winning Farms - Auction Jul 2, 2008
Lot#: 17 Napoleón Tercero Gómez - La Guadalupana
Overview

I bought this property from the National Development Bank in 1989. At that time, it was only 0.88 acres for coffee growing, the rest of the farm was planted with guatal and it was mostly mountains. Then with efforts I increase the coffee plantations and since 1994 I produce coffee.

Just my generation has worked in the coffee production.

The farm is located in a very special location for the production of quality coffees. We also select the good red beans for picking , good handling of the coffee, good practices at the wet milling and the timely transportation to the dry mill, as soon as it is washed.

I am very proud to have been selected as one of the best coffees in the Cup of Excellence 2009 Competition.
