ABOUT THE REGION

Cafetos de Segovia is a project bringing together small-scale coffee producers from the Nueva Segovia region in northern Nicaragua. It is this region, located near the border with Honduras, that is responsible for many of the most highly valued Nicaraguan specialty coffees. The high altitude of the farms, the cool climate, and the long ripening period of the cherries translate into coffees with high sweetness, a clean profile, and great elegance in the cup.

The coffees included in this lot come from the El Naranjal, Las Naranjas, and Los Angeles farms. The farmers manage their land under the shade of forest and fruit trees, taking care of biodiversity and soil fertility. Ripe cherries are hand-picked and then subjected to classic washed processing. After fermentation and washing, the coffee is dried for about twelve days under carefully controlled humidity and sun exposure.

Behind the project is Cafetos de Segovia, an organization that has for years been helping local producers reach the specialty market directly. It places great emphasis on supply chain transparency, long-term cooperation with farmers, and fair compensation for high quality. Thanks to this, small family farms can focus on producing better and better coffee while preserving the character of the Nueva Segovia region, for which Nicaraguan specialty is famous.

ROASTER'S OPINION

My, what huge beans! Our little Fellow Ode doesn't grind them all right away, but once it is persuaded, miracles happen in the cup. Very elegant, classic, yet so delicious!

Store in a cool, dry place.
