Caturra Green Bean Unroasted Specialty Nicaraguan Coffee, 1500g package
Origins & Legacy:Emerging from the cherished lineage of the Bourbon coffee species, the Caturra varietal brings with it a history steeped in tradition. Originally discovered in Brazil, Caturra has journeyed across Latin America, enchanting coffee growers with its distinct characteristics.Distinctive Traits:A defining trait of the Caturra bean is its dwarf stature. This not only allows farmers to plant the beans more densely, maximizing yield per hectare, but also facilitates easier harvesting. The compact size of the Caturra plant doesn’t diminish its flavor profile; instead, it concentrates it, offering an intense and delightful palate experience.Taste & Finish:Building upon the legacy of its Bourbon ancestor, Caturra surprises with an enthralling blend of floral notes intertwined with luscious hints of toffee and chocolate. The medium finish, accompanied by a pronounced acidity, makes each sip an exploration of depth and sophistication.Growth & Mastery:Championed by two farms known for their dedication to quality, our beans are cultivated at Finca La Union, our family’s testament to passion for coffee, and the revered San Rafael Farm under the expert hands of Jimmy Hoyes. In the soaring mountains of Nicaragua, where elevations reach 1400-1500 MASL, the Caturra varietal has not just flourished but evolved, each bean telling a story of the region’s rich soil and unique climate.Resilience & Evolution:Over the years, Caturra has proven to be a formidable contender in the coffee world due to its natural resistance to certain coffee diseases. This resilience, coupled with its abundant yield, makes it a favored choice among farmers, ensuring consistency in quality and supply. Each order delivers two generously filled 750-gram bags of green Caturra coffee beans, ensuring ample supply for your roasting endeavours. These beans come nestled inside a minimalist yet sturdy cardboard box that we encourage you reuse.The two bags can be used to store your roasted coffee once you have completed your roasts.
