Gold Mountain Coffee Growers grew out of that work, connecting smallholder Nicaraguan farmers to specialty roasters worldwide. Finca Idealista is Ben's own farm — the flagship of everything Gold Mountain has built — and it operates the way you'd expect from someone who chose this place on principle.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMachetes instead of herbicides. A mushroom to kill insects instead of pesticides. Volcanic filters to keep mucilage-filled wash-water out of the watershed. Chickens roosting above the compost to infuse it with nitrogen. Pickers paid double local rates. And one more detail that says everything about where Ben's priorities sit: Finca Idealista bought a rainforest just to protect it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe coffee reflects all of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a black honey microlot — Pacas and Caturra grown at 1,200 meters in Matagalpa, processed at the maximum mucilage level possible and dried slowly in the sun. The result is full-bodied, sweet, and layered in a way that changes as it cools. Candied citrus and honey up front, rooibos tea and a smooth brown sugar finish as the cup opens up. Slightly earthy. Incredibly complex. The kind of coffee that rewards a slow pour-over on a morning when you're not in a hurry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 107.969px;\" class=\"min-w-full border-collapse text-sm leading-[1.7] whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBenjamin Weiner - Gold Mountain Coffee Growers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%;\"\u003eFarm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%;\"\u003eFinca Idealista\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMatagalpa, Nicaragua\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eProcess\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBlack Honey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%;\"\u003eAltitude\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%;\"\u003e1,200 MASL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%;\"\u003eVariety\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%;\"\u003ePacas \u0026amp; Caturra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eRoast\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eLight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eCandied Citrus, Honey, Rooibos Tea\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eBest brewed as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003ePour-over\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.8591%; height: 10px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.8054%; height: 10px;\" class=\"border-b-0.5 border-border-300\/30 py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nicaragua","offers":[{"title":"Whole Bean (12 oz)","offer_id":49168357621915,"sku":null,"price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine\/Espresso (12 oz)","offer_id":49168357654683,"sku":null,"price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium\/Filter (12 oz)","offer_id":49168357687451,"sku":null,"price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse\/French Press (12 oz)","offer_id":49168357720219,"sku":null,"price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1799\/0697\/files\/FincaIdealistaHoney.png?v=1785778896","url":"https:\/\/steeloakcoffee.com\/products\/finca-idealista-black-honey-nicaragua","provider":"Steel Oak Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
