Ulli Salamun, who completed the cabaret trio Maschek, now spends most of his time in Nicaragua. There, he and his wife Sabine Khalil passionately run several organic-certified coffee farms. The coffee plants are fertilized organically, entirely without synthetic fertilizers. The Arabica plants (red and yellow Catuai) grow in the shade of numerous trees in the high-altitude Kilambé National Park at an elevation of around 1700m. After harvesting, these beans are specially processed for Süssmund as "Honey" (semi-dry). This method retains the mucilage before drying, resulting in a low-acid, full-bodied coffee that is perfect as a chocolatey espresso or as a base for milk beverages. Their social commitment to the local community is particularly noteworthy; in 2019, they built a kindergarten in La Corneta. This coffee is a showcase project for sustainable coffee cultivation in both ecological and social aspects. This is why we especially value this coffee and support the project with conviction.
