In 2012 Mariano Montealegre bought the land on which Los Nubarrones now lay on, the farm is 5.6 hectares with rich sandy and loam soil and the cioffees is grown under the shade of Liquidambar, pine trees and guava.

From the start Mariano and his partner Emir have planted only Java trees and commenced to run the farm

Los Nubarrones is located near Cerro Mogoton, the highest elevation in Nicaragua, the location of the farm is remote and very difficult to reach; the view from Los Nubarrones is truly magnificent but as of today there is no road yet that would link the farm to the road net in the area.

Cafetos de Segovia is a dry mill located in Ocotal and surrounded by coffee land, making it easy for producers to deliver the wet parchment the same day as they harvest and process it.

In 2015, a local producer family realised that the prices paid for coffee cherries in the region were too low and that they could produce high-quality coffee on their own farm. They decided to create a dry mill to add value to their product, and that mill is now run by sisters Martha and Ana, along with their team.

The family own a few farms that were inherited from Martha and Anas father. Like many properties in the area (in the north, bordering Honduras), the story of the farms ownership is a complex one. From 1975-1979 the Nicaraguan revolution hit the entire country, but it was even more intense at the Honduran border, forcing the family to emigrate to the USA. They returned to Ocotal six years later to find that their house and much of their farmland had been seized by the government. Only the house was returned to them they had lost more than 100 manzanas (70ha) of coffee farm.
