This week's coffee: Nicaraguan!
 
Nicaraguan coffee is not generally thought of as among the finest in the world. But within every region around the world, there are some spectacular examples to the found in the micro-lots from individual farms. This example from Finca Los Papales is one of those. The carefully tended plants of this small farm are Rainforest Alliance Certified and are a perfect example of the best of Nicaraguan coffee. Regularly priced at $20/lb, it is available in this Hamper for $3.50/100g, this is the last of this fine coffee available this year. 
 
Every Hamper, Jude reaches deep into her stash of rare and unusual green coffee beans to bring delicious oddities like wild-harvested coffee, unusual processes, and a little bit of information about origin or geo-politics; together which become the Special Reserve. Special Reserve coffees are an opportunity to try some of Jude's favorites too - coffees too good to miss. Special Reserve coffees may only ever appear ONCE depending on the availability of beans; in some cases, Jude has been able to source as little as 2lbs of any particular coffee. 
 
For the more common, but still special coffees, Jude is able to take Custom Roasting orders. Order by Saturday before the Hamper and Jude can include it with your Hamper order. The Special Reserve listing will always say if a coffee is available for Custom Roasting and its per lb price. Email Jude at backroomfarm@gmail.com for more information.
