This coffee is a Red Catuai variety from Finca Un Regalo De Dios in the Nueva Segovia region of Nicaragua. Grown at an altitude of 1800 meters, it is a natural processed coffee. The flavor profile is vibrant and aromatic, featuring notes of raspberry, jasmine, and blood orange. The beans are grown in loose, humus-rich sandy soil in a cool, forested microclimate, and are dried on raised African beds for 25-30 days to intensify sweetness and fruit character while maintaining clarity.
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.
