Fairtrade Nicaragua – Medium Roast

🔥 Roast
Medium roast — gently balanced to highlight both its sweet richness and nuanced flavor profile without masking its inherent character.

👅 Tasting Profile
Smooth and inviting, with a medium acidity and medium body, pairing warm notes of toasted hazelnut, molasses, and graham cracker, all wrapped in a clean, comforting finish.

🌱 Grower
Harvested by family-run smallholder farms united under the COMULFAC cooperative (Cooperativa Multifuncional Family Coffee R.L.) in Jinotega, Nicaragua. Founded in 2013, the organization empowers families and communities through shared resources and quality coffee practices.

🌿 Variety
A diverse blend of varietals including Caturra, Catuai, Bourbon, Catimor, and Maragogype, offering complexity and depth in every cup.

🌍 Region
Grown in Jinotega, a prime coffee-producing region in northern Nicaragua known for consistent quality and favorable growing conditions.

🏔 Altitude
Cultivated at elevations between 1,000–1,400 meters, allowing the beans to develop density and flavor clarity through slower maturation.

🧱 Soil Type
Grown in volcanic, nutrient-rich loamy soils—characteristic of the mountainous Nicaraguan terrain—imparting natural sweetness and structure to the beans.

🛁 Process
Processing involves traditional washing followed by sun-drying to maintain clarity and highlight the coffee’s natural sweetness and flavor nuances.

Brewing Tip

For best results, brew this coffee using a pour-over or drip method with water heated between 195–200 °F and a 1:15 coffee-to-water ratio. This helps preserve the smooth, nutty flavors and satisfying molasses undertones while providing a clean, enjoyable finish.

Final Thoughts

Temecula’s Fairtrade Nicaragua is a thoughtful balance of smooth sweetness and subtle richness—perfect for everyday sipping or a comforting treat. With a clear ethical foundation and approachable flavor profile, it embodies both quality and conscience.
