“BLACK CROW WHITE PIGEON”. EXTRAORDINARY COFFEE STORIES.
Chapter 6
The Black Crow presents:
The sweet aroma of honey and caramel fills the air. A well-balanced hint of luscious acidity slowly morphs into the characteristic spiciness of fresh herbs, which tickles the palate gently. The eye is drawn to the unusually large beans: those are lovingly referred to as “elephant coffee beans” by the locals.
Flying high over the Nicaraguan region of Matagalpa, one cannot help but notice the wide expanse of the coffee plantations owned by the Mierish family. Not only do these people take special care of every coffee cherry and coffee plant that springs up in their land, but they also nurture the environment that surrounds it. Trees are protected: in addition to gifting some cooling shade to the coffee plants and sheltering them from harsh winds, they provide home for the local fauna. Water used for processing coffee beans with the help of the washed method is afterwards cleaned thoroughly and reused. As a thank-you for such love and care, nature rewards the farmers with coffee of a truly extraordinary flavour—and now you can give it a try too.
