Introduction to the flavor and taste of high-altitude Nicaraguan coffee manor

The cultivation of coffee provides a good growing environment. The mineral-rich pozzolanic soil provides abundant nutrients for the cultivation of coffee trees. High-quality Nicaraguan coffee is also grown in the northern and central highlands of the country. The best coffee is produced in Matagalpa. The coffee produced here is highly respected by coffee lovers all over the world and gradually valued by the boutique community. Abundant precipitation, suitable temperature, high altitude, fertile soil and unique planting ecology are the prerequisites for creating high-quality Nicaraguan coffee.

Nicaragua is an economically backward agricultural country, is one of the poorest countries in Central America, the unemployment rate is very high, people live in poverty, and coffee is Nicaragua's pillar industry, producing nearly 100,000 tons of coffee beans every year. Due to the poor economic foundation, the coffee industry is still relatively backward, and coffee farmers are also in a relatively poor state.

Although Nicaragua is a country with a large territory in Central America, it is not a big producer in the coffee world, and its output and reputation are much weaker than that of its neighbor Costa Rica. But the high-quality Nicaraguan coffee is in the forefront of coffee beans in the world and enjoys a good reputation.

Traditional Nicaraguan coffee farmers are used to using water washing method for subsequent processing of coffee fruits. Coffee farmers are more accustomed to using water washing to ensure that the flavor of raw coffee beans is more stable and clean. it was not until about 2009 that the traditional attitudes of coffee farmers changed and began to try processing methods such as full sun and honey in more areas.

Matagalpa, which we mentioned earlier, is the coffee producing area that produces the best quality coffee in Nicaragua, and there is a heavyweight coffee estate worth introducing-the lemon tree (El Limoncillo). The manor is located in the plateau of Matagalpa between 950m and 1300m above sea level, and there are towering coniferous forests around the coffee trees, providing shade for the growth of coffee trees. This not only allows the coffee tree to be exposed to sunlight, but also protects the plant from being burned by the scorching sun.
