Nicaragua started growing coffee in the middle of the 19 century, when some students brought seeds from a trip in Guatemala, since then the coffee started spreading in the country. In the beginning, the coffee was cultivated only in the Pacific region, but with the time and thanks to Danish, German and Italian emigrants, whose originally intention was to make their way north until California in order to look for gold, the coffee industry expanded the coffee cultivation into the Northern and Central regions. Coffee production was diminished during the civil war of 1980.
