This region is very close to the border of Honduras and is part of the Cordillera de Dipilto Nature Reserve. The reserve is a place rich with biodiversity of flora and fauna. The name Estrella comes from the Beneficio La Estrella, the coffee wet mill founded in 2013 in Ocotal. Nicaragua La Estrella is comprised of coffee from producers in different municipalities around Nueva Segovia such as Macuelizo, San Fernando, Mozonte and Jalapa.

About this coffee
Alberto Guardia began growing coffee at Hacienda Sonora in the 1970’s. The 100-hectare farm sits at the foot of the active Poás Volcano in Costa Rica’s Central Valley. Sonora has a well-earned reputation for producing quality micro-lots featuring specific varietal and processing separation. This honey processed lot is made up entirely of the Obata variety, which is a cross between Villa Sarchi and Timor coffee varieties.
Impact:
Sonora is heavily focused on environmental and social impact. The farm uses 100 percent renewable energy that’s harvested on the farm and have also eliminated excess water usage by only employing the natural and honey processing methods. Sonora also provides free accommodations, including most household utilities, for each worker and their families in the farm’s houses.
