Agua Sarca is a beautiful coffee plantation nestled in the heart of Nueva Segovia, Ocotal-Las Manos, Dipilto, owned by Isacio Javier Albir Vílchez. The farm is a testament to heritage and love for coffee, passed down in the family for more than 30 years. At an altitude range of 1200-1400 masl, the farm spans 76 hectares and is home to several coffee varieties including Caturra, Catuaí Amarillo, Catuaí Rojo, Maracaturra, Ovata, Parainema, Marcelleza, and Geisha. The coffee trees thrive in the sandy soil, with their roots drawing rich nutrients resulting in beans full of flavour. With an average yield of 18 quintals of parchment per hectare, Agua Sarca is a significant contributor to the local coffee economy.
The farm employs 25 permanent workers, with the team expanding to 85 people during the harvest season, which typically runs from November to March.

The team is trained to pick only the ripest coffee cherries, ensuring that the quality is maintained throughout the harvest process.
