ESMERALDA SPECIAL

What this record means

The record shows that “ESMERALDA SPECIAL” is a live Principal Register trademark owned by HACIENDA LA ESMERALDA, S.A., a Panama corporation, and it covers the staple‑food class 030 product “Coffee.” Because the registration is limited to coffee, a similar name used for coffee‑related goods would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories fall farther from the scope shown in the record. The entry does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “ESMERALDA” or “SPECIAL.” The prosecution history shows a standard examination with an examiner’s amendment on Feb 9 2012, after which the mark was allowed onto the Principal Register; there is no supplemental‑register situation to note. The most recent meaningful event is the acceptance of the Section 8/9 renewal on Apr 21 2022, and the supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation or other enforcement activity. I’d treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand coffee with a similar name, but the risk is lower for non‑coffee products.
