The Deets

This coffee comes from Maritza and Francisco Javier. Their farm, Santa Teresita, in Jinotego, is 1325 MASL. The maracatu varietal is a cross between Pacamara and Caturra. The ripest cherries are hand-picked, sorted, and sealed in barrels to ferment anaerobically. The cherries are then rinsed and placed on raised drying beds for 34 days to dry in the sun. The flavors remind us of black cherry syrup, blackberry, Cantaloupe, cherry lifesaver, red licorice, and brown sugar.

REST IN PEACE

We recommend resting fresh coffee before drinking it. This allows the volatility of the roast time to subside, and the sweetness and character to shine. For best results, rest washed coffees for 5–10 days, natural coffees for 10–15 days, and experimental processed coffees for 15–30 days.
