Read about Grind Types

We have recently adjusted our grind options. With that in mind, we wanted to offer this primer so that you can choose the best grind-style for your preferred brewing method.

Whole Bean-- While we are happy to grind your beans, your coffee will stay fresher longer if you grind it as you go. There are many great home grinder options out there and many are surprisingly inexpensive.

Drip-- This is a medium grind that is the most versatile. Brewing methods using drip include home coffee drip machines, pour-overs (like Hario), Chemex, and AeroPress.

Espresso-- This grind is generally used for espresso makers. This includes home machines and stove-tip espresso pots. The grind is the most fine and is optimized to work with a high pressure extraction system.

Coarse-- Coarse is for percolators, french press, cold brewing, and sometimes AeroPress. Coarse is the biggest/loosest grind and enables water to move more freely steeping coffee for extraction.

All of the above, while generally true in the industry, also should be adjusted for preference. Feel free to experiment and please contact us if you have questions and we will be happy to work with you.

Product Overview

Dedicated to more than just growing coffee, La Central Cooperativa Las Diosas (The Goddesses) is a dynamic network of community based cooperatives run by women and supporting true development and respect for women’s rights. The cooperative is located east of Managua in the department of Estelí where much of the land is devoted to tobacco production and largely controlled by male producers. Las Diosas consists of four smaller cooperatives, each managed by its own Directiva (female Board of Directors). Fiercely independent and determined to succeed in the coffee industry, the 250-member cooperative has made much progress since their founding in 1996, both in terms of sustainable commercial relations for their coffee sales as well as the promotion of issues such as women’s education, housing and health.

Available in a variety of grind options.

    We subscribe and drink every morning.

    Posted by Charlie on Feb 1st 2021

    This is a true medium roast, and the roasty flavor doesn't overpower the coffee flavors, which are quite nice. We subscribe monthly and drink it every morning. Like all coffee, it is better if ground fresh. Being a relatively lighter roast, it requires more coffee per water than you might use for national and grocery brands, and there's likely higher caffeine content. When brewed strong with good water distribution, this is a very rich and fulfilling coffee. I also drink leftovers cold, and it is good cold too. Not to mentioning, supporting a Georgia small business.

    My Favorite Cafe Campesino Blend for 20 Years!

    Posted by Jill Elizabeth on Aug 19th 2019

    This is the first blend I tried from Cafe Campesino nearly 20 years ago and I still love it. It's very smooth with a strong flavor and delicious aroma. I've tried others and have enjoyed them but the Nicaragua blend will always be at the top of my list.

    This is exactly the kind of coffee I want to wake up to in the morning. It is mild, rich and smooth. This is my first bag and I will definitely purchase again!

    Our favorite for 20 years!

    Posted by Rich on Oct 23rd 2018

    This single-origin coffee is our favorite! We prefer the medium-roast. The flavor varies a little year-to-year but its always good. One time I had a cup from a day old pot and it had taken on a mild chocolate flavor! Trying it again in the years after it isn't always so but I sure do remember it.
