About This Coffee
Pole Position is a smooth, lively Nicaraguan medium roast from the Matagalpa and Matiguás regions. Natural processing brings out caramel sweetness, nutty depth, and a bright, clean finish — balanced enough for everyday drinking, flavourful enough to notice.
How to Brew It
- Grind fresh, right before brewing — whole bean coffee loses aromatics quickly once ground.
- Use filtered water and measure your coffee and water by weight for consistency.
- For drip or pour-over, use a medium grind; for French press, a coarse grind; for espresso, a fine grind.
- This medium roast is versatile — it holds up well to drip, pour-over, or French press equally.
- Brew, then serve promptly — coffee is best within 20–30 minutes of brewing.
