Nicaragua Matagalpa Catimor Arabica Green Unroasted Coffee Beans -3LB-

A unique Arabica variety of coffee! Catimor is the "fourth bean" that helps give Vietnamese blends their unparalleled complexity. In Vietnam, Catimor is rarely given center stage, though. In Nicaragua, on the other hand, Catimor is a prized heirloom. The result is a premium quality bean with a unique and deeply layered flavor profile. The farm uses mandarin orange trees as shade trees, too, which adds to the sweet citrusy fragrance. After extensive experimentation we chose this coffee for our cold brew and Blonde roasts, dubbing the Blonde roast Limoncello due to its pleasing fruity, lemony profile. In many Arabicas lemon notes are a fault, as they accompany an overly-high acidity. But in this Matagalpa-region Catimor, acidity is 40% lower than most Arabicas, so the lemon tone is more of a lemon zest note than lemon sour. Incredibly refreshing as an iced drink or espresso.
