Introduction of Maragogype varieties

The giant elephant beans, which grow above 1500 meters above sea level, are sweet and charming, with strong aroma. In addition to the eye-catching shape, the fruit is full, the bean is hard, and it has a mild classic flavor. It is also the only coffee without sharp acidity in Central America. Therefore, it enjoys the reputation of the Central American Blue Mountain, and its taste is very thick. High altitude plus shade planting method, the fruit ripens for a long time, the result is less, nutrients are concentrated. The flavor develops naturally and completely.

The reason why it is called giant elephant beans, because its volume is 2-3 times the size of ordinary coffee beans, only the volume of Jamaica Blue Mountain No.1 coffee can be comparable; but also because of low production capacity, production is quite rare, long-term Japanese love and rush to buy, its clear taste, excellent aroma and caffeine content is very low, despite the high price is still loved by coffee gluttons.

This manor's giant elephant bean is the only Maragogype that has won the Coe Cup award in Nicaragua.
