For the second year we are proud to share Nicaragua Selva Negra, a beautiful coffee from Selva Negra located in the mountainous region of Matagalpa in Nicaragua. 

This multi-generational, family-owned farm experiments with processing methods to bring the most out of the harvest and is committed to environmentally conscious practices. and this naturally-processed coffee is one you won't want to miss.

This Nicaragua Selva Negra is a naturally-processed coffee, with our Head Roaster, Josh Puckett, calling it a "Jolly Rancher fruit bomb." 

Our Nicaragua Selva Negra is excellent as a single origin espresso or as a drip coffee.

Sourced from the Matagalpa region of Nicaragua, this lot from the Selva Negra estate showcases the distinct character of the producer’s work. As a natural-processed coffee, it undergoes a drying phase where the cherry remains intact, a technique that often imparts a heavier body and pronounced sweetness compared to washed counterparts. You can learn more about how these processing methods influence the final cup profile to better understand the nuances present here.

Roasted by Peach Coffee Roasters, this selection highlights notes of purple grape and black currant tea. These descriptors fall within the fruit-forward categories often explored when using a flavor wheel to analyze complex profiles. While natural-processed coffees from this region are frequently celebrated for their deep, jammy qualities, this specific offering provides a focused look at the intersection of traditional Nicaraguan terroir and careful post-harvest handling. It serves as an excellent example of how regional conditions shape the sensory experience of a single-origin coffee.
