Coffee is our passion
Five generations of coffee farmers
High above the valley, hidden within the dense fog of the Jinotega rainforest, five generations of coffee farmers have dedicated their lives to cultivating only the best Arabica beans. With coffee grown at an elevation between 3200-4100 ft, the Don Tomas family has passionately devoted itself to sustainable coffee farming with a commitment to strengthening the community in which our coffee is grown and harvested.
Don Tomas coffee is proud to be a member of the Rainforest Alliance, as well as partnered with the Flor de Maria Rizo Vocational School. Our intimate and unique relationship with our land of Potrerillos allows us to support housing, healthcare, spiritual services, and educational opportunities for our community. The Don Tomas family is proud to work on “Progress from the Source” through your contributions and our continued commitment to our home of Nicaragua

Great coffee from seed to cup
Los Potrerillos
High in the cloud forests of Jinotega, Nicaragua, at 4500 feet elevation, the farms of Don Tomas Coffee Company are passionately producing the perfect coffee. Great coffee does not happen by chance, but is developed with purpose and pride.
With attention to cultivation details, we nurture our coffee cherries under a canopy of abundant shade trees to achieve optimal flavors and sweetness.
Then we hand harvest and selectively process only the ripened red cherries to preserve every bit of the coffee’s natural fruitiness and brightness. The best of our coffee beans are then small-batch roasted to deliver an unforgettable drinking experience. A true seed-to-cup coffee, which makes the Don Tomas coffee truly unique.
Our Values
- Uncompromising on quality.
- Respect and Compassion for all.
- Responsibility to the stewardship of our planet.
