Nicaraguan Single Origin Coffee
Nicaragua Single Origin Coffee — Nueva Segovia
This single origin coffee from Nicaragua offers a refined expression of balance and clarity. Grown from Catuaí varietal in the high-altitude region of Nueva Segovia, this selection highlights sweetness and structure without overwhelming intensity.
Roasted to a composed medium profile, the cup presents a soft, tea-like body layered with gentle citrus brightness and restrained cocoa depth. The result is a coffee that feels deliberate — expressive yet calm, structured yet approachable.
Origin & Terroir
Nueva Segovia sits at elevations exceeding 1,200 meters above sea level. Slower cherry maturation at altitude concentrates sugars and supports clean acidity, resulting in exceptional clarity in the cup. Nicaragua is widely respected for producing coffees that emphasize balance over sharpness.
