Miel Process

Miel means 'honey' in Spanish. The honey process (Miel Process) refers to the method of making raw beans from coffee fruits, ultimately making the coffee unforgettable like sweet honey. The honey process, originally called "Pulp Natural," means sun-drying with the mucilage intact. After removing the outer pulp from the coffee fruit, there remains a layer of sticky gelatinous substance on the raw beans; unlike the washed process which uses clean water to wash this away, it is more difficult to dry during the sun-drying process. Therefore, strict control and turning are required throughout the entire process to avoid undesirable fermentation flavors.

Nicaragua Coffee Regions

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

Widespread volcanic ash and shade-grown cultivation methods produce high-quality Nicaraguan coffee with mild, gentle flavors and slight acidity. Nicaraguan coffee beans are among the larger coffee beans. MADRIZ is located in the mountainous area of northern Nicaragua, bordering Nueva Segovia, Jinotega, and Esteli. This region is peaceful and elegant, featuring the famous Somoto Canyon. The local residents mainly consist of various tribal indigenous people and mixed-race individuals from the colonial period with Spanish (mostly Chorotegas). The area produces coffee, develops art and handicraft processing trade, and has traditional delicious cuisine. Madriz is characterized by a cool climate, with seemingly simple small towns but distinctive white buildings with beautiful roofs and special tiles. There are also many coffee plantations in the area, with lush pine and oak forests covering the mountains.

Although the region has not yet been widely explored by tourists, Madriz has various interesting attractions, including special geological formations, rock paintings, ancient colonial sites, and high-quality handicrafts developed from different materials. The capital of Madriz is the small city of Somoto. Somoto has an active ancient parish church located in the city center (the church still maintains artifacts and architectural structures from the colonial era since 1661).
