this is a light-roasted, certified organic coffee from the jinotega region of nicaragua, processed naturally, meaning the beans dried inside the whole fruit. that natural process gives it a softer, fruit-influenced body compared to a washed coffee, while keeping the cup leaning toward tea-like delicacy rather than sweetness. expect black tea and herbal qualities in the cup alongside milk and dark chocolate tones. the light roast rewards gentle brew methods, so a pour-over or filter setup works well here, using water just off the boil and a medium-fine grind to pull out the layered, quieter flavors without bitterness.
