nicaragua santa teresa de mogoton is a light roast from nicaragua, processed naturally, meaning the coffee cherries are dried whole before milling. that process draws out the fruit's sugars, which shows up clearly in the cup as lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest alongside brown sugar sweetness and a background of cocoa. roasted by short sleeves coffee, it sits on the brighter, fruitier end of the spectrum. to get the most from it, use a brew method that highlights clarity and acidity, like a pour over or aeropress, with water around 90-93°c and a medium-fine grind.
