Bastilla farm is situated approximately 20 kilometres away from Jinotega. The farm covers 311 hectares, of which 160 hectares are currently dedicated to the production of coffee, with the potential of 190 hectares being used in this way.
The remaining areas are mostly primary forests and administrative areas, in addition to a general agricultural area used by La Bastilla Agricultural Technical School.
An estate located in the midst of a mountainous natural reserve, all cherries are handpicked according to the microclimates of each individual farm, to maximise their potential.
The farm's altitude ranges from 1,050 to 1,450 masl. La Bastilla Farm has been certified by the Rainforest Alliance since 2003 and has a continuous program of improvement.
The coffee is grown in volcanic soils, deep in a mountainous natural reserve.
The estate also houses a fully vertically integrated processing system, to allow for precise differentiation and sorting of each bean.
Due to its altitude and natural conditions, La Bastilla produces a quality of coffee that is well balanced, with a good body and aroma.
The staff at The Gentlemen Baristas focuses solely on the customer experience _x0097_ and they want to make sure that from the moment you enter until the time you leave, you are met with a comfort like no other.
Not only that, but you will find yourself amused at the British uniqueness of each coffee because many of them are named after classically British hats.
