High-Altitude Organic Excellence
Our Organic Nicaraguan coffee comes from the rugged, mountainous northwest region of Nicaragua. Grown at an impressive altitude of 4,250 feet, these beans are nurtured in a climate that demands slow maturation, resulting in a large bean packed with concentrated sugars and oils. The high-elevation volcanic soil lends a structural elegance to the cup that is unique to the Nicaraguan highlands.
A Sophisticated, Winey Profile
This selection produces a cup with high acidity and a moderately full body. It is defined by a sweet aroma with deep chocolate undertones, complemented by citrus tones and a refined, winey finish. The "winey" characteristic provides a pleasant, dry fruitiness that lingers on the palate, making it a favorite for those who enjoy a complex and lively medium roast.
- Organically Grown: Cultivated without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, ensuring a pure and environmentally conscious cup.
- Bright Medium Acidity: Offers a crisp, "snappy" sensation that highlights the citrus and chocolate layers.
- Moderately Full Body: Provides a smooth, coating mouthfeel that supports the coffee's bold flavor profile.
- 100% Arabica: Sourced from specialty-grade farms dedicated to the highest standards of Central American coffee production.
Artisanal Roasting for Maximum Clarity
At Berardi’s, we roast our Nicaraguan beans to a precise level to balance the bright acidity with its natural chocolate sweetness. Because these are larger beans, they require a meticulous roasting curve to ensure even heat penetration, locking in the sweet aroma and light citrus notes that define this origin.
