This coffee is from Nicaragua, specifically from the El Jaguar farm. It is organically grown at an altitude of 1300-1350 meters. The coffee is washed processed and made from Red and Yellow Catuai varieties. It features tasting notes of apricot, blueberry, and vanilla.
Ori and Vicky founded the Missing Bean in 2009 after discovering specialty espresso culture while studying in Australia. It became Oxford's first independently owned specialty coffee shop. The roastery followed in 2014 in East Oxford, where the team roasts daily. They also run their own artisan bakery nearby. Direct trade is central to the sourcing, with farm visits at least once a year where possible, and they pay above Fair Trade rates. The business has since grown to multiple café locations across Oxfordshire, with a new opening planned in Berkshire for early 2026. Used coffee grounds go to Oxford City Farm for composting.
