Finca La Esperanza - Nicaragua

Finca La Esperanza

Taste Story

Tropical sweetness meets fruity vibrancy in a clean sipping package. A nice bit of apple-like crispness provides a well rounded experience. This coffee has a lush mouthfeel with a slightly sparkling finish. Everything we love about naturally processed coffee is found in this beautiful bourbon from Nicaragua. 

Processing Journey

After careful picking the cherries are floated to remove defective cherries. After this the coffee cherries dry on African drying beds for 25-30 days. During this time the coffee is hand rotated for even drying. This attention to detail allows the inherent flavors of the coffee to shine.
