by | Aug 6, 2024 | 2024, Press Releases

At our NCF booth, Agua Fresca Coffee will showcase our sustainably sourced single-origin coffee. Visitors can sample our green coffee from the 2023-2024 crop, taste freshly brewed medium and dark roast coffee, and purchase our 12 oz whole bean and ground coffee in dark and medium roasts. Our coffee, grown in the Cerro Datanli – El Diablo Nature Reserve in Nicaragua, offers a unique flavor profile with delicate floral notes, a hint of citrus, and a smooth, balanced finish.

Owner Fransisco Guiterrez grew up on a coffee farm in Nicaragua before starting a career as a physician in NOLA. With Agua Fresca Coffee, he has returned to his family roots.

“We are thrilled to share our passion for sustainable coffee production and to connect with like-minded individuals who appreciate single-origin coffee and a strong family background of coffee farmers,” says Francisco Gutierrez, Owner. Our goal at NCF is to highlight our single-origin coffee farm, proudly owned and operated by our family for four generations, and to share our rich family history and dedication to the industry.

Agua Fresca Coffee is a fourth-generation family-owned business with headquarters in Metairie, Louisiana. Our coffee is grown and harvested in the Cerro Datanli – El Diablo Nature Reserve in Jinotega, Nicaragua, stored at Dupuy Warehouse in NOLA, and roasted in Kenner, Louisiana. We are excited to announce that the fifth generation is already stepping in and will be attending, ensuring growth while maintaining our traditions.
