About Finca La Laguna
Dipilto is a premier coffee growing region, with diverse microclimates and good altitude for producing specialty coffees. Finca La Laguna is operated by producer Luis Emilio Valladarez who also operates Finca Buenos Aires another coffee we've carried this year. Finca La Laguna came under his direction and ownership about 4 years ago now, thriving from his expertise and leadership. The farm is situated at 1100 - 1350 meters, and planted entirely in Caturra. The farm acquired Rainforest Alliance Certification a few years back, and the washed coffee won first prize at the 2012 RFA Nicaragua coffee competition.
