Dulce Suenos

Our house decaf option, this is a sweet and balanced decaf, that works great with any brew method, with or without milk. The Farm This shade-grown Arabica coffee originates in the highlands of Jinotega, Nicaragua, where more than 20000 smallholder members of the Aldea Coffee cooperative—5229 of them women—farm an average of five hectares each under a model first organised in 1992 to advance environmental stewardship and rural credit for coffee growers. Cultivation takes place between 1100 and 1300 metres above sea level within the Café ECOFORESTAL programme, an agroforestry system that integrates hardwood and fruit trees, banana plants and cover crops to diversify income streams and enhance soil health. Ripe cherries are selectively hand-picked from December to March, sun-dried at the Asturias processing facility, and prepared for export during the November–June shipping window, ensuring consistent quality and moisture control. The lot is graded to screen sizes 15–20 and comprises Caturra, Catuaí, Parainema and Catimore varieties. Certified production for the 2025 crop year totals 41,327 bags (69 kg each) drawn from 321 farms, while overall exports by the cooperative’s marketing arm are projected to reach 200 750 bags. Compliance with Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade USA, Organic and With Women’s Hands standards underscores the group’s commitment to sustainable land management, equitable trading terms and gender-inclusive governance. Following a 2023 organisational restructure, export services are managed by Aldea Coffee S.A., one of four specialised entities created to strengthen farm finance, input supply and community investment for members across the Jinotega region.
