- SUGGESTED RECIPE
This Nicaraguan coffee is warm and nutty up front, with a mellow sweetness and clean, comforting finish.
Finca Las Naranjas in Los Arados, Mozonte, grows around 12,350 Red Catuai, Yellow Catuai, Caturra and Maracaturra coffee trees across 3.86 hectares. Only fully ripe cherries are picked, then floated, dry-pulped and rested for 24 to 36 hours before washing. The coffee then goes to Cafetos de Segovia to finish processing before exporting to the world.
In 1998, Hurricane Mitch damaged the farm and it sat abandoned until 2012, when Juan Carlos bought it and began restoring it. Today he farms with the environment in mind, aiming for a sustainable farm that covers its own needs while producing exceptional specialty coffee.
