448 Nicaragua El Avion Red Catuai Washed

Summary

A washed Red Catuai coffee from El Avion farm in Dipilto, Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua, produced by Mario Gonzalez. The farm, once a pine forest, was converted to coffee cultivation, with shade from large conifers and pine needle ground cover. The coffee is lightly roasted to highlight its gentle sweetness, offering notes of green apple, roasted hazelnuts, sugar cane, and citrus, with a round mouthfeel. The processing is done through Bridazul, a local partner that supports producers.
