Nicaragua Altisimo Dark

  Cupping Notes: Chocolate, Nutty, Orange, with a hint of Spice This is  a S.H.G. (Strictly High Grown) specialty grade coffee          This organic specialty grade coffee is cultivated in the mountainous region north of Matagalpa and Jinotega, and we roast it well into the second crack, and dump it when the color of the bean is consistently dark brown, with small specks of oil visible on the bean. The resulting flavors are incredible!         If there is one of our coffees that we would call our “Flagship”, it is this coffee that consistently supplies deep complex flavors with a pleasant body that slides off the palate.
