Nicaraguan coffee beans

Nicaraguan coffee is known for its smooth and approachable character. The beans often combine a creamy body with flavour notes of milk chocolate, nuts, and a subtle fruitiness. This results in a well-balanced coffee that performs excellently both as an espresso and as filter coffee.

What makes Nicaraguan coffee special?

The coffee beans from Nicaragua grow in fertile volcanic soils and often at significant altitudes. This results in coffee beans with a mild acidity, natural sweetness, and a full, creamy finish. Compared to neighbouring countries like Honduras or Costa Rica, Nicaraguan coffees are generally softer and more approachable, making them perfect for everyday use and for coffee drinkers who enjoy a balanced flavour.

Key coffee regions in Nicaragua

Overview of Nicaraguan coffee regions with flavour profiles and altitude/climate

Jinotega Sweet and fruity, apple and stone fruit Up to 1,500 m, cool and misty
Nueva Segovia Complex and floral, sometimes wine-like Mountainous, near the Honduras border
Madriz Mild and balanced, nutty aftertaste Lower altitude, warm and sunny

Varieties and processing

In Nicaragua, almost exclusively Arabica coffee beans are cultivated. Well-known varieties include Bourbon (sweet and round), Caturra (fresh and lightly fruity), and Catuaí (balanced and creamy).

Most coffee is processed via the washed method, which enhances clarity. In regions like Nueva Segovia, you also find honey and natural processing, adding a sweeter, fruitier dimension. This gives Nicaraguan coffee a surprising diversity: from bright and fresh to rich and intense.

How to brew the best Nicaraguan coffee?

Thanks to their creamy body and mild acidity, Nicaraguan beans are versatile. In filter coffee, you mainly taste the fresh fruit notes, while espresso emphasises the chocolate and nutty qualities. Due to their gentle character, they are also ideal for cappuccinos and latte macchiatos, where the creaminess pairs beautifully with milk.

If you use a French press, you get a full, rounded cup with a long aftertaste. For a refreshing summer drink, cold brew works excellently: the coffee then gains a soft, sweet freshness.
