Nicaragua Coffee

Nicaragua UCA San Juan del Rio Coco - Washed Process - Medium Roast

TASTING NOTES: Chocolate | Nuts | Citrus

Nicaraguan coffee offers clean, balanced flavors that never overwhelm—just smooth, sweet, and reliably good. This lot from UCA San Juan del Rio Coco showcases the Central American profile done right: chocolate sweetness, nutty depth, and just enough citrus brightness to keep things interesting.

What makes this Nicaraguan special:

Grown in Nicaragua's Madriz region at 1,200+ meters. This washed coffee delivers smooth chocolate and nutty flavors with gentle citrus brightness. Fully washed processing creates a clean, balanced cup—sweet enough to drink black, smooth enough to never taste bitter. Perfect for drip brewing, with a creamy body and satisfying finish.

Why Medium Roast for Single Origins?

We roast all single origins to a medium profile to preserve the unique characteristics of each origin. Medium roast lets you taste what makes Nicaraguan coffee different from Ethiopian or Brazilian—the soil, altitude, and processing methods all come through. If you want darker roasts, check out our espresso blends and dark roast blends designed for bold, roasty flavor.

✓ Drip coffee champion: This is where Nicaraguan coffee shines—balanced sweetness and gentle acidity create consistently delicious pots without drama or bitterness.
