Finca Buenos Aires, nestled in the scenic Dipilto Mountains of northern Nicaragua near the Honduran border, is a testament to the Valladárez family’s dedication to coffee. Founded by Luis Emilio Valladárez over 50 years ago, the 75-hectare farm cultivates Maracaturra, Maragogipe, Java, Villa Sarchí, and Caturra at elevations of 1,200–1,450 masl. 

Now managed by Luis’s son, Olman, the farm has flourished, earning recognition in competitions such as the Cup of Excellence. In 2025, Finca Buenos Aires placed 3rd with a natural Maracaturra, while its sister farm, Los Alpes, placed 4th with a washed Geisha. 

Maracaturra, a cross between Maragogipe and Caturra, combines the former’s large bean size with the latter’s compact growth. The farm’s natural Maracaturra highlights the variety and terroir beautifully, offering blackberry and passionfruit notes. 

Beyond coffee, the Valladárez family invests in community well-being, supporting public health campaigns and organizing local celebrations. Their philosophy emphasizes sustainability and a familial spirit, ensuring that everyone involved, from collaborators to consumers, shares in the fruits of their labor.
