This Nicaragua Maracaturra is sourced from Finca La Bendicion in the Nueva Segovia region, grown at an altitude of 1600 meters. It is a natural processed coffee featuring the Maracaturra variety, which is a hybrid of Maragogipe and Caturra known for its large seeds. The flavor profile offers a comforting sweetness with distinct notes of apple butter, peach, and Belgian waffle. The coffee is grown in the cloud forests of the Dipilto–Jalapa mountains, benefiting from a cool microclimate and slow cherry maturation.
Hyperion Coffee is a specialty roastery in Ypsilanti, Michigan, founded in 2015 by Eric Mullins, Dan Kubera and Alex Merz. Named after the Greek Titan of light, the roastery was built on three pillars: relationships, science and education. Kubera roasts on a 10 kilo Ambex, sourcing directly from small independent producers including Ariel Fúnez in Honduras, with every coffee listing varietal, elevation, processing method and farm name. The team cups roughly 30 samples in a single morning session as part of their daily quality routine.
