We “slow roast” these beans from the Vida Joven farm to a dark, robust perfection, bringing out deep chocolate and buttery tones. Slow roasting keeps the temperature lower longer, allowing the flavors to fully form, while avoiding that “burnt” sensation.
The Vida Joven farm is high in the mountains of Northern Nicaraguan between Jinotega and Matagalpa. It’s altitude of 5000 feet provide a cool environment and a longer growing season for coffee, resulting in a dense flavorful bean.
