A smooth, layered cup with a rounded sweetness, gentle citrus, and a subtle baked character. Grown at 1,550 metres on Bella Aurora, a 36.5-hectare farm managed by the Lovo family, this coffee comes from a family dedicated to careful farming and environmentally responsible practices.

Sourced from the Nueva Segovia region of Nicaragua, this Bella Aurora lot is produced by Luis Joaquin Lovo. The coffee is composed of the Caturra varietal, a plant widely recognized for its high yield and adaptability, which has become a staple in Central American coffee production. Following harvest, the cherries undergo a washed processing method, a technique typically employed to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean.

In the cup, Discovery Coffee highlights a profile defined by chocolate, orange, and apple fritter notes. While individual experiences can vary, these descriptors align with the flavor wheel categories often associated with balanced, washed-process coffees from this region. As you explore this offering from Discovery Coffee, consider how the specific combination of the Caturra varietal and the washed process contributes to the final cup profile, providing a clean foundation for these distinct, dessert-like characteristics to emerge.
