Nicaragua Coffee Beans

Coffee was introduced in Nicaragua in the mid-nineteenth century.  Unfortunately, Nicaraguan coffee has lost some of the valuable characteristics that once caused it to be a sought after coffee.  Now the wet-processed Nicaraguan coffee bean is mild, with a light acidity appropriate for blending and dark roasting.

Kevin Knox describes coffee in Nicaragua as bold (large beans) with a pronounced, but often salt like acidity.

Classification of Nicaragua coffee beans is by altitude.
