About Santa Luz Estate
Hacienda Santa Luz, purchased in 2003, was transformed from an abandoned lot into a sustainable coffee plantation. The farm replanted diverse coffee varieties and built a professional organization that manages all operations, including export.
With 105 hectares suitable for coffee growing, the farm adheres to Rainforest Alliance standards, ensuring environmental sustainability. It has adopted high-yielding and disease-resistant coffee varieties and built an eco-friendly processing plant. Additionally, 30 hectares are preserved as forest.
Located in Matagalpa, Nicaragua, Hacienda Santa Luz benefits from a unique microclimate. CEO Ricardo Herrera and General Manager Marco Tulio Gonzalez lead the farm with a team of 50 permanent workers and 400 seasonal pickers. Herrera has experience from Colombia and Costa Rica, while Gonzalez holds an MBA in industrial engineering.

For espresso I would recommend higher ratio for the best result.
