Ulli Salamun completed the cabaret trio Maschek, but now spends most of his time in Nicaragua. There, he and his wife Sabine Khalil passionately run several certified organic coffee farms. The coffee plants are fertilized exclusively with organic fertilizers, entirely without synthetic ones.

The Arabica plants ( red and yellow Catuai) grow in the shade of the many trees in the high-altitude Kilambé National Park at around 1700m. After harvesting, they are wet-processed using the washed method. The result is a low-acid, full-bodied coffee that is perfect as a chocolatey espresso or as a base for milk-based drinks.

Of particular note is the couple's social commitment to the local community, where they built a kindergarten in La Corneta in 2019. This coffee is a model project for sustainable coffee cultivation in both ecological and social terms. That's why we especially value this coffee and support the project wholeheartedly.
