Montecristo is a large coffee plantation and nature reserve. Lushly forested as part of the Peñas Blancas Massif the area forms part of the Bosawas Biosphere reserve. With the coffee trees growing in rows between and under the canopy the native trees provide, the farm is rich with nature. Montecristo goes beyond environmental stewardship by extending its care to the local community.
Adjacent to the farm, a school and nursery have been established, offering essential facilities and educational opportunities for both the village residents and the children of the farm workers. Coffee once picked is processed at the farm, but dry milling is carried out at the group’s dry mill and warehouse which was bought back in 2014. Having a centralised facility allows for the building of expertise and control of the quality across the whole of the estate.
