Origin Details

Nicaragua

Region: Nueva Segovia
Species: Arabica
Grade: SHG EP
Coffee from Nicaragua’s high-altitude growing regions is valued for its balance, structure, and consistent cup quality. Grown under cooler mountain conditions, these coffees develop slowly, allowing sugars and flavour compounds to mature fully within the bean.

Classified as SHG EP, this coffee meets strict preparation standards, with carefully sorted beans selected for uniformity and cleanliness. Nicaraguan coffees are well known for their chocolate-forward profiles and gentle acidity, making them especially well suited to darker roasts that emphasize richness, smoothness, and spice-driven depth.
