The Story Behind Plumeria SHG

Named after the Plumeria flower, a symbol of warmth, resilience, and natural beauty throughout the tropics, this coffee reflects the vibrant character of Nicaragua's northern highlands. Like its namesake, Plumeria is approachable, balanced, and crafted to leave a lasting impression in every cup.

As part of the StoneX Specialty Coffee Flower Series, Plumeria is thoughtfully developed to provide roasters with dependable quality and a consistent cup profile from harvest to harvest. Working alongside long-term producing partners, we carefully select coffees that capture the distinctive character of northern Nicaragua while delivering the reliability professional roasters depend on year after year.

This regional blend is sourced from a network of smallholder producers across the Matagalpa and Jinotega regions, where coffee is grown between 1,175 and 1,400 meters above sea level. Farms ranging from two to ten hectares cultivate traditional varieties including Caturra, Catuai, Marsellesa, and Catimor, with producers selectively harvesting only ripe cherries to preserve quality and consistency.

The result is a clean, balanced cup with vibrant acidity, layered sweetness, and the approachable character that has made northern Nicaragua one of Central America's most respected coffee origins.
