About This Coffee

El Cedro is a single-origin coffee from Nicaragua, produced by the Peralta family at their 45-hectare farm in San Fernando, Nueva Segovia. This unique micro-lot is a monovarietal parcel selection of Catuai Rojo, grown at 1800 meters altitude. The coffee undergoes natural processing with extended anaerobic fermentation in sealed 450L tanks for up to 72 hours at approximately 15°C, followed by 30 days of careful drying on raised beds. The sensory profile features cherry, toffee, praliné, and dried plum notes.
