this washed caturra and bourbon lot comes from jinotega, nicaragua, one of the country's most established coffee-growing regions, and was recognised as a cup of excellence lot. the shg (strictly high grown) designation means the beans developed slowly at high altitude, which tends to concentrate sugar and acidity. in the cup expect stone fruit and peach up front, with milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and baking spice rounding out the finish. the washed process keeps the fruit character clean and the structure clear, making it a good fit for filter brewing, where that layered sweetness and gentle spice can open up fully.
