Nicaragua doesn't always get the credit it deserves as a coffee origin, but the quality coming out of its high-altitude growing regions is hard to argue with. This is a sweet, medium-bodied single origin with clean fruit and chocolate notes and a lingering nutty finish.
Nicaragua's coffee is primarily shade-grown in volcanic soil across five highland regions, at altitudes that slow the development of the cherry and concentrate the natural sugars in the bean. The result is a naturally sweeter, cleaner-tasting coffee with more depth than you might expect.
In the cup you get ripe fruit and dark chocolate on the palate, floral and fruit aromas, and a smooth finish with a lingering nutty sweetness. It's well-rounded without being heavy, making it an easy go-to for everyday drinking.

Nicaragua's balance and medium body make it one of the more versatile single origins in the range. It works well as an espresso, holds up nicely with milk, and is also a great option for plunger, stovetop, or filter brewing. If you're after a single origin you can drink every day without it getting tiring, this is a good pick.
1. How does Nicaragua compare to our other single origins?
It sits comfortably between Brazil and Colombia. It's a bit more fruit-forward than Brazil with the apricot notes, but softer and less intense than Colombia. If you want something approachable with a bit more character than Brazil but without the full brightness of Colombia, Nicaragua is the one.
2. Is it good for milk-based coffees?
Yes. The natural sweetness and cocoa notes come through well with milk. It makes a smooth, well-rounded latte or flat white without the coffee getting lost in the mix.
