Washed Java | Medium Roast Coffee

Very surprised about this coffee. Excellent taste! Your taste buds will ask for more. I am definitely ordering more coffee!

This Nicaraguan roast is one of the most easy-drinking coffees I’ve had in a while. It’s smooth, medium-bodied, and has just enough brightness to keep it interesting without being sharp. There’s a subtle nutty sweetness that comes through, especially when brewed with a pour-over or French press. Great for daily drinking with no bitterness, no fuss, just a solid, enjoyable cup every time. Definitely one I’ll keep around.

This was my first time brewing Nicaraguan coffee, and I must say that I’m really impressed! The complex aroma of roasted beans wafting from the package made for a great first impression, and the brew was especially lovely. Within minutes my kitchen was full of a nutty, slightly citrusy, fragrance, and there was plenty of body for being a medium roast. I didn’t want to write a full review until I’d tried the coffee in all the ways I normally take it: hot without creamer, hot with creamer, cold without creamer, and cold with creamer.

Overall, what stood out to me the most was just how smooth and non-acidic the coffee tasted. Normally, when I brew a cup, I expect a certain amount of bite to it, but just when I thought it was gearing up to get me, the flavor backed down and finished smooth. On its own, the coffee balanced all the notes advertised on the packaging (sweet, floral, citric, with aromas of jasmine and grapefruit). However, with the addition of a creamer (oat milk), the brighter, more citrusy notes came to the surface. Definitely a coffee I’ll keep on my radar.

As a side note: If you’re the kind of person who likes to snack on coffee beans, I’d highly recommend these. They have a great crunch and won’t get caught in your teeth. I also suspect they’d be fantastic dipped in chocolate.

This coffee was incredibly smooth and silky! I ordered the whole bean roast, and the aroma was so intense after the first grind.

I normally put a splash of cream in my coffee, but I just wanted to experience this flavor on its own. Its not bitter at all - even when made extra strong.

Highly recommend 👌

I love this coffee! Makes a wonderful french press and this will definitely be in my regular rotation from now on!
