Nicaragua Coffee Overview

Nicaragua is mainly divided into four major regions: Segovias, Matagalpa/Jinotega, Boaco, and the Pacific Coast region. The Segovias region has the highest cultivation altitude at approximately 1,500-2,000 meters, producing the highest grade SHG (Strictly High Grown) coffee.

Nicaraguan coffee features deep flavors with chocolate, caramel sweetness, and distinct almond notes, complemented by bright acidity. Unlike the typical bright fruit acidity found in Central American coffees, Nicaraguan coffee offers a different profile. Nicaragua's coffee cultivation environment enjoys unique natural advantages, with fertile volcanic soil throughout and shade-growing practices. These conditions establish excellent growing conditions, making Nicaraguan beans not only rich in body but also aromatic. In the eyes of international coffee experts, Nicaraguan coffee is considered premium and gradually gaining attention in the specialty coffee industry.

The Maragogype Variety

Maragogype, also known as Elephant Bean, is 3 times or even larger than other coffee beans. Its taxonomic name is Maragogype, originating from the Maragogype county in Bahia state, Brazil. In 1870, this county first established the taxonomic classification of giant coffee beans, which is an Arabica derivative (hybrid variety).

The flavor profile is full-bodied, featuring both bright stone fruit acidity and rich sweet spice notes. With diverse flavor changes including apricot, vanilla, mint chocolate, pineapple, citrus, and caramel sweetness, it truly deserves to be called an exceptional coffee bean!
