Discover the Richness of Jinotega Coffee: Nicaragua’s Hidden Gem

Jinotega, a renowned coffee-growing region in Nicaragua, is celebrated for its Strictly High Grown (SHG) coffee, cultivated at altitudes of 1,200 meters (about 4,000 feet) and higher. This high elevation promotes slower maturation of coffee cherries, allowing them to absorb more nutrients and develop into denser, sweeter beans. The result is a premium quality coffee, meticulously processed to European Preparation (EP) standards, ensuring a minimum screen size of 15 and a maximum of eight defects per 300 grams.

Jinotega coffee is known for its diverse and captivating flavor profile. Common Arabica varieties such as Bourbon, Caturra, Maracaturra, and Pacamara contribute to its complexity. Expect a cup that delights with bright acidity and a harmonious blend of citrus, chocolate, and caramel notes, often complemented by subtle floral or nutty undertones. This distinctive profile makes Jinotega coffee a standout choice for those seeking a rich and flavorful coffee experience.
