    Note this is for the Groundwork Medium Roast version from this cooperative. There's a light roast listed on the site with different characteristics.

    I like this Groundwork coffee, even more after using the QR code to read about regenerative organic. Groundwork is also a B-corp and every coffee I've seen from them is organic.

    I thought this specific roast was great as espresso and good as pourover. I didn't really get much of the lemon/cranberry acidity in pourover. It was more smooth and chocolate with a light acidity. As espresso, it was more dynamic, with notes of very dark, quality chocolate, natural sweetness, and those cranberry/lemon hints. It had a full body and a lovely crema.

    Overall for me this Groundwork Nicaragua Regenerative Organic Medium roast is a very nice one, very versatile, with high quality beans you can make almost any type of style with.

    Cupping Method:Bought at Whole Foods - used as both espresso and pourover, multiple times each.

    Traits: chocolate cranberry smooth

    This roast makes a clean, bright coffee. It is very well balanced with a little nuttiness and lightly sweet acidity.

More Details

Roast Level: Medium
Medium roast coffee balances the beans' natural flavors and the roasting process, providing a well-rounded taste profile. When selecting a medium roast, look for a balance of acidity and sweetness, with caramel, nuts, and chocolate notes and a medium body.
Bean Source Country: Nicaragua
Nicaraguan coffee is celebrated for its well-balanced and approachable taste. Grown primarily in the fertile volcanic highlands, the coffee beans benefit from a unique combination of nutrient-rich soils, high altitude, and mild climate, which imparts a smooth, medium body and gentle acidity to the brew. Nicaraguan coffee is known for its delightful flavor notes, which include milk chocolate, caramel, and toasted nuts, accented by a subtle touch of stone fruits and citrus.
Organic
Organic coffee is produced without synthetic chemicals, such as pesticides, herbicides, and artificial fertilizers. Instead, organic coffee farmers rely on natural and sustainable agricultural practices like crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control. To be labeled as organic, coffee must meet strict regulations and certification criteria set by governing bodies, such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or the European Union (EU). Organic coffee not only supports environmental sustainability but may also offer health benefits, as it contains fewer chemical residues than conventionally grown coffee.
