LUISA PASTORA NICARAGUA (WASHED) - Espresso Roast
Our latest washed Nicaraguan single from Luisa Pastora at Finca Santa Rita. This lot has a lovely lingering aftertaste when served black and is bold and creamy through milk. The acidity is mild and reminds us of malic acid fruits like pears and apples.
