Finca Buenos Aires, nestled in the scenic Dipilto Mountains of northern Nicaragua near the Honduran border, stands as a testament to the Valladárez family's dedication to coffee excellence. Established by Luis Emilio Valladárez over 50 years ago, this coffee farm spans 75 hectares, with varieties like Maracaturra, Maragogipe, Java, Villa Sarchí, and Caturra cultivated at altitudes between 1,200 and 1,450 masl.
Under the management of Luis's son, Olman, the farm has flourished, earning accolades in competitions like the Cup of Excellence. Most recently, Finca Buenos Aires secured 7th place with a natural Maracaturra in the 2024 Cup of Excellence, while its sister farm, Los Alpes, took 1st place with a natural Geisha.
Maracaturra is a rare variety resulting from a cross between Maragogipe and Caturra, from which it gets its large bean size and compact growth, respectively. This natural Maracaturra is a great expression of the variety and terroir at Finca Buenos Aires, with blackberry and passionfruit notes.
Beyond coffee, the Valladárez family's commitment extends to community well-being, sponsoring public health campaigns and organising celebratory events. The philosophy at Finca Buenos Aires revolves around creating a sustainable and familial atmosphere, where everyone involved—from collaborators to consumers—enjoys the fruits of their labour.
