If you’ve been a fan of our coffee for a few years you’ve likely become familiar with coffee from the farm of Bayardo Reyes, one of our longest-standing direct trade relationships in Nicaragua. Coffees from Bayardo’s primary harvest have been a staple on our coffee menu for several seasons, and we’re excited to share a smaller lot from Bayardo’s farm here with you.

Named after Bayardo’s father, Don Mauricio is a 100% Catuai lot of exceptional quality grown between 1200-1300 MASL. Bayardo continues to experiment and isolate lots on his farm to highlight their unique characteristics, and we’re excited to share this special lot with you.

With a classically chocolate base flavor profile and undertones of cola and red apple, we’ll be enjoying this coffee at home quite a bit. We highly recommend trying this coffee in a traditional drip machine or as a single-origin espresso.

This coffee is part of our ARC SERIES. These coffees feature a slightly heavier roast profile, perfect for fans of traditional dark roasts.
