Nicaragua La Bastilla

La Bastilla Coffee Estates in Jinotega, Nicaragua, produces renowned honey-processed raw coffee beans, where the term "honey" refers to the mucilage surrounding the coffee parchment. The honey processing method yields a fruity cup profile with a rounder acidity and complex mouthfeel compared to washed coffees, while being less water-intensive. La Bastilla's farms are certified by the Rainforest Alliance and meticulously managed to express each coffee's potential, with over 150 micro-lot coffees produced annually through careful wet and dry milling.

Additionally, La Bastilla specializes in Strictly High Grown (SHG) coffees, cultivated at altitudes above 1,200 meters, resulting in denser, sweeter beans of higher quality sorted to European Preparation (EP) standards for discerning consumers.
