The family-run Bethania farm embodies the principles of integrity, perseverance, and a deep love for the land, yielding quality results. Third-generation producers, sisters Ana and Martha Albir, have transformed it into a home for exceptional coffee. With their drying station and collaboration with local farmers, along with gentle processing, Bethania stands out as one of Nicaragua’s most captivating coffees.
Farm and station story
This Nicaraguan specialty coffee from Bethania carries a strong heritage. Founded in 1991 in the heart of Nueva Segovia, renowned for its high-standard coffee, it’s now led by sisters Ana and Martha Albir, whose roots trace back to 1930. The family faced hardship during the revolution in the 1970s and was forced to move to the USA. Later, upon returning to Ocotal, they found most of their land had been taken, but they stood firm, determined to continue their coffee tradition.
In 2015, they built their dry mill, Cafetos de Segovia, gaining total control over processing. Today, they process coffee from their fields and work with over 47 smallholder farmers across the Macuelizo region.
How it’s processed
Coffee from Bethania is washed, a method that brings out clarity and brightness. About 80% of batches undergo this strict washed protocol. Fresh cherries are rapidly processed into wet parchment and then dried on patios: first in shade for 5–6 days, then in the sun. The patios are covered with black mesh to avoid direct ground contact.
Drier-processed cherries are also actively turned and pooled during hot periods to ensure even drying and flavor retention, especially critical at lower altitudes (below 900 m asl) where the sun’s intensity is stronger.
Varietal
This coffee centers on the Java varietal, celebrated for its gentle sweetness, floral notes, and nuanced complexity. Originally from Ethiopia, Java has thrived in Nicaragua’s microclimate. The farm also grows Caturra, Catuai, Catimor, and Maracaturra, allowing the sisters to experiment and continually refine the flavor profile.
We work with several couriers worldwide, the table HERE specify the conditions for each country.

Why Uganda Matters
Zebigi isn’t just another specialty coffee. It’s part of a bigger story that we’ve poured a piece of ourselves into. A year ago, we had the chance to be right there in Uganda – to meet the farmers who grow the coffee, to see the process from harvest to drying. And that’s when we realized we wanted to do even more.
Together with The Coffee Gardens, we co-financed the opening of a QC Lab in Uganda. This quality control laboratory enables farmers to evaluate their harvest directly on site, refine their practices, and, as a result, achieve fairer prices.
Every cup of Zebigi is not only about flavor, but also about the future. About giving farmers the tools and knowledge that open doors to better conditions and stability. And that’s exactly why we love returning to Uganda.🤎

A winter collection of five coffees in packaging created over the course of our five-year collaboration with illustrator Jaromír 99.
Every year, you write to us saying that you keep the winter packaging, display it, even frame it. And thanks to that, we realized that packaging isn’t just something to be thrown away, it can evoke memories, convey a mood, and bring joy long after the coffee is gone. That’s how this winter collection was born.
Exceptional packaging, exceptional content. For you. For someone close. Or just because this season deserves something special.
You can choose between two variants: filter or espresso. And now the best part: the coffee selection is up to Father. So you, too, can enjoy a little surprise this Christmas, after all, presents come from Ježíšek, right? So why not enjoy the joy of unwrapping, too?
