Maracaturra

Coffea arabica var. maracaturra

Big-bodied, sweet, complex; large beans.

Maracaturra is a cross of the giant-beaned Maragogipe and the compact Caturra, developed in Nicaragua. Like its cousin Pacamara it yields very large beans and a full, complex cup of florals, fruit, and sweetness, and it has produced numerous Nicaraguan Cup of Excellence winners. It demands careful selection to remain stable and is grown mostly by quality-focused producers.
