Luis Alberto Balladarez: the visionary of Un Regalo

Luis Alberto Balladarez is a name synonymous with excellence in Nicaraguan specialty coffee. We are proud to feature his Natural Caturra, a testament to his pioneering spirit in experimental processing methods. Luis's deep understanding of his land and his relentless pursuit of unique flavor profiles have consistently yielded Cup of Excellence-winning coffees. Beyond his remarkable achievements, Luis's generosity in sharing his wisdom and his genuine modesty make him an admirable collaborator, embodying the true spirit of partnership at origin.

Process Spotlight: Luis’s Natural Caturra

The Natural Caturra from Luis’s estate, "La Bendicion" (The Blessing), undergoes a meticulous natural process, carefully managed to enhance its inherent sweetness and complex fruit notes. This experimental approach, combined with his sophisticated washing station and diligent oversight, ensures a coffee of remarkable clarity and depth.

The Mogoton Terroir: a symphony of flavors

The unique microclimate and rich volcanic soils of Mogoton impart a distinct character to Bayardo's coffees. Expect profiles that are bright, clean, and expressive, often showcasing delicate floral notes, vibrant fruit complexities, and a lingering sweetness that speaks to the meticulous care taken from seed to drying bed.

Bayardo Jimenez: the artisan of Mogoton

From the high altitudes of Mogoton, Nicaragua, Bayardo Jimenez brings us coffees that are unforgettable. He is now fully dedicated to evolving his pursuit of mastering natural and experimental processing methods. Although he has a smaller operation and resources that aren't as robust, his latest effort—a natural Geisha—is a true revelation and is a glimpse into a very promising future. His dedication to sustainable practices and his profound connection to the land are evident in every coffee bag we've imported. Bayardo's expertise in cultivating rare varietals and employing innovative processing methods results in coffees that are both intensely aromatic and exquisitely balanced. His micro-lots are a testament to the potential of Nicaraguan terroir and the boundless creativity of its producers.
