Finca Los Positos is a 21 hectare farm owned by Maria Estanislada Martinez, located in the lush and mountainous department of Jinotega. Maria grew up around coffee, and inherited from her parents all the knowledge and work ethic required to grow coffee - as well as 1 hectare of farm land and a truck. She decided to sell the truck, buy more land, and plant more coffee; establishing Finca Los Positos as an engine of employment and development for her community, with 30 full-time workers and up to 100 during harvest. Coffee at Los Positos is shade-grown and hand-picked, with wet milling and fermentation done onsite. The result is a sugary and nutty coffee, with mellow notes of tart fruit acidity.
