NICARAGUA - La Estrella

The Nicaragua La Estrella comes from 126 small scale producers located in the department of Nueva Segovia approximately 150 miles from Nicaragua’s capital, Managua. This region is very close to the border of Honduras and is part of the Cordillera de Dipilto Nature Reserve. The reserve is a place rich with biodiversity of flora and fauna. The name Estrella comes from the Beneficio La Estrella, the coffee wet mill founded in 2013 in Ocotal. Nicaragua La Estrella is comprised of coffee from producers in different municipalities around Nueva Segovia such as Macuelizo, San Fernando, Mozonte, and Jalapa.

This year’s lot of Nicaragua La Estrella offers a comforting, approachable profile with broad appeal. In its lighter forms, the coffee opens with soft floral notes of clover honey and a smooth, creamy texture. As it develops, layers of praline and vanilla cream bring a warm sweetness that’s both familiar and satisfying. Simple and crowd-pleasing, this coffee shines as a balanced espresso and performs beautifully across brew methods.
