Our Mombacho coffee comes from the Sajonia Estate cooperative in the Matagalpa region. Manfred Guenke has been the manager of the cooperative since 2016. He represents the third generation of coffee growers, with a new vision of farming practices, particularly through projects to support growers, such as the Campesinos Programme.
The Campesinos Programme supports 300 producer families in the Jinotega and Matagalpa regions with logistical assistance. This includes help with collecting coffee and technical advice to improve the quality and marketing of the coffees.
The challenge is also to preserve the traditional agroforestry practices used to produce this coffee, so that the cherries ripen slowly.
