Nicaragua - Jose & Emma's Cherry microlot

A beautiful washed coffee with notes of cherry, red apple and a honey sweetness.

Jose Francisco and Emma are in the process of expanding their farm and increasing their area of coffee cultivation, which only became possible after Gold Mountain Coffee Growers helped them escape from a predatory debt cycle.

Jose Francisco works hardin the fields and Emma is the financial brain behindtheir finances and small payroll to workers. Their "cherrymicrolot" beans have a slower maturity rate because oftheir high altitude and cool climate, allowing beans toabsorb more nutrients. The result is more complex cupping notes (including a prominent cherry note) and denser, sweeter beans. The newly-acquired portion oftheir farm is interspersed with cilantro, carrots, andother vegetables to supplement their income.
