Coffee of the Month - Nicaragua Las Morenitas

pear, brown sugar, pineapple
£9.50 GBP

With tasting notes of chocolate, pear, brown sugar and sweet pineapple, this nicaraguan coffee is deep, rich and delicious.

Nicaragua Las Morenitas is produced by Victor Robelo as part of the Las Nubes group,  a collection of farms across Jinotega and Matagalpa dedicated to sustainable, high-quality coffee production. Grown at elevations between 1000–1250 metres above sea level in the cool climate of Cerro Bonetillo, the slower cherry maturation at altitude helps create exceptional sweetness, clarity, and balance in the cup.

The farm is planted with Caturra, Catuai, and Marsellesa varieties and is managed with a strong focus on environmental stewardship and long-term sustainability. Behind the coffee is a skilled team deeply committed to quality and community. Workers are paid above market rate to retain experienced harvesters, while meticulous lot selection and quality control are overseen by engineer Ismael Gonzales and cupper Jeyson Chavarria. Their dedication has helped Las Morenitas gain recognition within Nicaragua’s speciality coffee scene, including placements in Cup of Excellence competitions.

Cherries are hand-picked at peak ripeness, reaching 26° Brix under the guidance of Production Manager Jimmy Valenzuela. Once harvested, the coffee is fully washed and processed on the farm.

The cherries are carefully cleaned, sorted, and pulped before undergoing a 36-hour tank fermentation. After washing, the wet parchment coffee is transported to the dry mill facility in Matagalpa, where the drier climate provides ideal conditions for slow, controlled drying.

Larger lots are dried on patios, while microlots are carefully managed on raised beds. Each drying lot is assigned its own dedicated team responsible for consistent raking and quality control throughout the process, ensuring clarity and consistency in every cup.

 

How will my coffee be packaged?

We use heat sealed bags with a one-way valve (to let gases escape but none in) and this will keep your coffee fresh for up to four months unopened (if you really want to keep it that long!)  We use box-bottomed resealable valve bags as our default but if you want the tall non-resealable valve bags then please ask in the notes for order section.  We then pack your bags of coffee into bespoke cardboard boxes.  These will prevent your coffee from being damaged in transit and are 100% recyclable.  

Where does The Bean Shop deliver to?

We currently deliver all over the UK and Europe.  It can get a bit tricky further afield than that as it becomes increasingly difficult to keep track on the parcel's whereabouts. To be honest there is probably a coffee roaster a bit closer if you're outside Europe anyway!

How much does postage cost?

No-one really likes paying for postage but in order to avoid increasing our prices we have opted to charge a flat-rate of £3.00 for all our UK orders.  This is expensive if you only buy one bag of coffee but becomes very reasonable if you order more bags.  We use Royal Mail 1st class for orders up to 3 bags.  For orders 4 bags and over we use DPD 48 hour delivery as a default (this option will require a signature upon delivery.)  

In geographically isolated areas of the UK, DPD can take longer than 48 hours so we have added the option of paying for Royal Mail which could be more efficient.

How long will it take? 

We aim to deliver your order within 48 hours of receiving it (under normal circumstances) and are often much quicker!  During peak periods (i.e. Christmas) your order may take a little longer due to delays or extreme weather conditions.  

If I'm not in?

For orders of 1 bag of coffee our boxes are post-box friendly so should be delivered whether or not you're in.  For larger parcels, usually the delivery person will leave a card saying it has been returned to the post depot where you can collect it from.  Many customers find it easier to have their coffee delivered to their place of work so that there is always someone there to accept it.
