Lemon Tree Estate is located next door to La Gloria & Limoncillo and is currently owned by two sisters, inherited from their father, Esteban McEwin. Since 1938, they have been growing coffee in the area, covering an area of about 200 hectares, of which about 100 hectares are planted. The coffee varieties planted in this estate at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters include Maragoipe, Pacamara, Bourbon, Caturra and JavaNica.

When the bean was harvested six years later and received high praise, many people asked him what kind it was. Because it looks so much like Geisha,Erwin says, we could name it Misty Mountain Lady or Extreme Ancient, etc., but it would be far from her original species and confusing, so we named it JavaNica. Because she is Java species, but successful in Nicaragua, hence the name JavaNica.

Java this species is still planted in Java Island, but because of low yield and poor disease resistance, many farms have been planted new varieties, from the appearance point of view, the traditional Java bean type is quite similar to Typica species, generally see Java bean type is shorter and slender (i.e. short berry), and long grain (long berry) Java species, even rarer. In addition to the rarity of variety and appearance, what I am looking for is actually a cup test flavor, and this Java long seed can meet all the needs: rarity, good flavor, and, this species is planted with a story! After winning the runner-up in the Nicaragua CoE Competition in 2008, it was introduced for the first time and cultivated many foodies!

Lemon tree estate, Spanish is: El Limoncillo, since 2001 after the trial planting, because of the charming flavor, has been in the family of 5 estates to carry out experimental planting, but the total yield is still very small, this year's best is less than 100 bags, select a batch to CoE competition, the remaining less than 80 bags. The McEwan family acquired this legendary variety dramatically, and the family estate was actually located in a good planting area, thus contributing to the legendary process of Java re-cultivation in Central America, and the once lost vanilla flavor of Java was revived.
