My favorite of the bunch! Can't wait to try the other roasts once they become available!In the words of the great Mr. T....."Stop your jibber jabber and do some good! Buy some OCC fool!"Product Description
This washed single-origin coffee comes from Jinotega, Nicaragua. Robber Parker speaks of a cup quality that has a "toffee fragrance, vibrant acidity, notes of caramel and a long, sweet finish".
When I first visited Nicaragua in 1993 I can remember sitting on the banks of Lake Nicaragua watching a baseball game. The photos I took that day in Grenada are still vivid in my mind. It seemed odd that a country so challenged by an ugly civil war, funded in part with dirty US dollars, would embrace baseball, "America's pastime" with such enthusiasm.
Obviously, I was simplifying things but it struck me in such a way that a full twenty five years later I'd find myself designing a coffee with a baseball theme.
Revolución as a specific name honors the ideals that inspired many throughout the Americas but also because of a particular photo I took in San Carlos. That photo remains one of my favorites and always comes to mind when I think of the amazing people I met in Nicaragua.
