This washed lot comes from Finca Bethania, a 42-hectare farm in Nueva Segovia, northern Nicaragua – a region celebrated for its high-quality coffees. Run by sisters Ana and Martha Albir, the farm reflects three generations of coffee-growing experience and a commitment to sustainability, community, and exceptional flavour.
Expect a full body with rich chocolate, sweet red apple and low acidity. We’ve roasted this coffee with care to highlight sweetness and bring out its chocolatey body and satisfying depth. It’s comforting, versatile and works beautifully across all brew methods.
The Albir family’s connection to this land dates back to the 1930s, when their great-grandfather first began cultivating coffee in the region. After the Nicaraguan revolution forced the family to emigrate, much of their land was seized. Decades later, Ana and Martha returned to rebuild. Today, the farm is Rainforest Alliance certified and actively protects native forests, conserves water, and nurtures the surrounding ecosystem.
The coffee is processed at Cafetos de Segovia, a dry mill built in 2015 by a local producer family to give farmers more value and control over quality. It’s now run by Ana and Martha and supports 47 other producers in the region. The mill includes a greenhouse built in 2020 to house experimental lots and delicate varietals.
It’s important to order the right grind for the way you make your coffee:
Whole bean – for those with a grinder.
Coarse – for making in a cafetiere.
Medium – for pour over/ drip
Fine – for espresso and aeropress.
