The small mountain forest area that is Finca Santa Maria de Lourdes has been owned by Octavio Peralta from 1970, and he began restoring the coffee production in 1994 once the UN had cleared the area of mines, after it had been a war zone for many years. This farm has obtained a rainforest alliance certification in recognition of Octavio's decision to reserve part of his land for the purpose of preserving the natural habitat, which plays a key role in the production of it's coffee. The farm sits in the Nueva Segovia region, which has some of the highest growing altitudes in Nicaragua. Characterised by the diverse range of vegetation and wildlife, these hills are often immersed in thick clouds and benefit from high levels of rainfall.
This coffee was produced using the natural process with an extended anaerobic fermentation, which means that after the cherries are picked, washed and sorted, they are placed into airtight tanks to ferment for up to 72 hours. Once the fermentation process is complete, they undergo a drying process on raised beds and moved 3 times a day to prevent spoilage, which may take up to 30 days.
The anaerobic process is an additional step in coffee processing which many speciality producers are now exploring. It can yield a wide range of flavour profiles, depending on the type of anaerobic press used, but generally results in coffees with a fuller body, and a winey flavour, with hints of tropical fruit, fermented cacao and floral notes; a bright and lively acidity is also a common characteristic.
For this particular Nicaraguan coffee, the unique origin and process brings out flavours of key lime pie, blueberry, red apple and malt.

Really enjoyed this coffee. Will be buying my beans from here from now on. Always like to support local businesses too.
Purchased as a gift
My brother loved the gift set and is enjoying all of the flavours. Thank you!
These beans make smooth rich flavoured coffee every cup from my Sage coffee machine - the best way to start the day! Certainly a great buy from Potterbeans compared to other companies I buy beans from
Great taste.
Quick delivery.
Beautifully roasted to perfection , great taste coffee.Loved it.
when the box arrived it was nicely packed and I loved the fact there was no plastic at all! Just cardboard and aluminium to recycle. The wood roasted beans were delicious after I managed to dial in the correct grind size for my Bambino expresso machine . I tasted lots of choc and a hint of fruit
Very pleasant cup of coffee
Great gift , was really well received
I bought a gift set for my husband to try out for his birthday and this was his favourite by a mile!. I’m not a coffee drinker myself but he likes it so much we’ve purchased it a few times since! The smell is amazing, and he said that flavour is a nice light one.

I've been having this as my daily coffee for months now. Absolutely perfect balance of the darker more tradional malty flavours with the fruity aerobic interest.
This is one of the best tasing coffees I've ever had. Amazing
Love the coffee variety and the packaging would highly recommend

I brought the selection box of coffee for an anniversary present (fruit & flowers) and it went down really well with my coffee loving husband. The coffees are amazing. I'll definitely be ordering more!
Nicaragua Pink Bourbon
This coffee is incredible, after doing a lot of travelling and finding one we loved, we have never found anything to compare. That is until I discovered Potterbeans. It’s smooth with a delightful taste and really hits the spot! This is the only coffee comparable to one we found from Japan. Thank you!! The Jars are also so unusual and make a nice change from a bag
This coffee is my new love, such a beautiful flavour.
The coffee is so delicious, I love it.I will be buying again.
Also the packaging is genius, it makes a brilliant present for coffee lovers.
Definitely you’ve got returning customer here.
It's a lovely light roast blend with low acidity perfect for my morning coffee with milk. Highly recommend.
This is my favourite coffee currently
After sampling countless varieties this is my all time favourite for pure reliability. It's a deep, rich, full flavoured coffee that just comes out reliably perfect every single morning.
