Pinavete comes to Novo from our good friend Olman Sauceda and his approximately 30 acre farm in the mountains near Dipilto in northern Nicaragua.
Located at an altitude of 1300-1400 meters above sea level, Olman usually produces 4 different lots from different sections of the farm. He grows several different varieties of coffee including caturra, pacamara, geisha, java, and parainema. Several fruit trees are prevalent throughout the farm, including banana, guava, and several varieties of citrus. Malangas (similar to yucca or taro) are also common. All fertilization on the farm is done organically.
This year’s “Pinavete” is 100% caturra processed using the traditional washed method. After the cherries are depulped (peeled), the seeds are soaked in tanks and where the remaining pulp is loosened and then washed off. The seeds are then dried in raised beds to 10-12% moisture content. Final milling and sorting is done just prior to shipment.
Unfortunately due to logistical reasons, this coffee shipment arrived several months later than expected. Nevertheless, the flavors have held up quite well and we believe it was well worth waiting for.

Roasting is done in small batches and profiled in a way to ensure that the inherent flavors in each coffee are brought to the forefront, as are their differences based on origin, terroir, processing method, variety, and other factors.
Our coffee buyers have demonstrated a special ability to discover truly wonderful and distinctive coffees. We roast our coffee and present it to the consumer in such a way that the differences and subtleties between roasts are as apparent as the nuances found in wine. These diverse flavors lead to a deeper discovery of coffee origins, the people who grow and harvest the cherries, the cultures that exist where the coffees are cultivated, It is our aim to promote the world of specialty roasted coffee through the meticulous selection,
We like to think of the world of coffee not as a static range of cultivated land that lies between Cancer and Capricorn, but instead as a botanically differentiated region whose crop originated in Ethiopia over a thousand years ago. Since then, coffee has moved to the middle east, to India and Indonesia, then to the New World, and finally, back to Africa and Kenya as a domesticated, genetically modified product. This journey is our journey as coffee specialists, a journey back to coffee’s birthplace.
As our name suggests, Novo Coffee was created with a goal of bringing new life to the coffee industry. It is our aim to promote the world of specialty roasted coffee through the meticulous selection, roasting, brewing, and presentation of what we feel are some of the most distinctive and flavorful coffees available in today's marketplace.
We have a lofty goal: we want to reintroduce you to coffee. For starters, coffee didn’t originate in a European cafe amidst writers, lovesick poets, and starving artists. It comes from a rich tradition built in Ethiopia, where coffee is called Bunna, pronounced “BOON-NUH” in their native language of Amharic.
They say there is a little bit of science in every art and a little bit of art in every science. and the economic relationships that are formed with each and every purchase of roasted specialty coffee. We strive to keep a foot in the past by connecting to origin, and supporting the communities that start our beans on their path to your cup. But we also keep an eye to the future, developing roasting and brewing techniques that challenge convention and dramatically improve your coffee experience.
