Elevation
1,300 Meters
Bright, layered, and deeply comforting, this special release from Finca Escénica showcases the expressive side of Nicaraguan naturals. Grown high above the San Juan de Limay Valley in the lush mountains of Estelí, this Catimor Natural delivers a rich fruit-forward profile with notes of plum, orange, and candied yam. Roasted light to preserve its complexity and sweetness, this coffee is vibrant without being overpowering—perfect for slow mornings and intentional brewing.
-
Process
Natural (Sun-Dried Process)
Natural process coffees are dried with the entire coffee cherry still intact, allowing the fruit sugars and organic compounds to interact with the seed throughout drying. At Finca Escénica, ripe cherries are carefully hand-selected and laid out to dry slowly under controlled conditions, where they are regularly turned to ensure even drying and fermentation. This extended fruit contact creates a cup with deeper sweetness, fuller body, and vibrant fruit character. The result is a coffee that feels expressive and layered, with rich notes that reflect both the process and the care behind it.
